Sweet Potato and Zucchini Au Gratin image

This is a twist on a recipe I found here in Recipezaar as I added the zucchini for more vegetables as I'm always trying to get as many vegetables as possible in a dish and I also added the cheese. I made a few other modifications as well. The Manchego cheese gives it some typical Spanish flavor, which I love to do to typical American dishes.

The au gratin sauce was a little too thick for my taste. I would have preferred it to be a little thinner and creamier.

The dish was a little bland. I think it could have used more salt and pepper.

This dish was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less brown sugar.
