I'm not a vegetarian, but I really enjoyed this meatless main course. The combination of vegetables and cheese was very satisfying.

This was a great way to use up some leftover potatoes and leeks. I had some extra cheese in the fridge, so I added that to the top of the gratin before baking it. It was a nice touch.

I served this gratin with a side of roasted asparagus, and it was the perfect meal. The flavors and textures complemented each other perfectly.

I didn't have any morels on hand, so I used shiitake mushrooms instead. They worked just as well, and the gratin was still delicious.

I had some leftover gratin, and it reheated beautifully in the microwave. The flavors were just as good the second time around.

I'm not usually a fan of morels, but they were surprisingly good in this gratin. The earthiness of the mushrooms paired well with the creamy sauce and tender vegetables.

This leek, potato, and morel gratin was an absolute delight! The flavors and textures were perfectly balanced, and the morels added a touch of umami that really elevated the dish.
