Summer Vegetable Tian

Colorful summer vegetables are sliced and layered into the dish in an easy fashion, drizzled with oil, sprinkled with herbs, and baked. Slices of lemon add tartness and zest. The flavors are best at room temperature, so the tian can be baked in the morning, when the day is still cool.

With all the new varieties of summer vegetables on the market you needn’t limit yourself to a single type of squash or tomato or to the ingredients in the list. Try whatever comes your way.
