Gluten Free Toppings And Add-ons

4 ounces cream cheese, softened
½ cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
1.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

Mashed potatoes – Add potatoes and water to a pan. Add enough cold water in the pan so that the water line sits about 1 inch above the potatoes. Add the salt, pepper and garlic and bring it to a boil. Cover and cook until potatoes are completely cooked (about 10 minutes). Stir in the butter and yogurt and set aside.
Preheat oven to 400°.
Sauté the onion and garlic with olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the onions are soft and transparent (3-5 minutes).
Add the carrots, peas, corn, and mushrooms to the skillet and continue to sauté until the vegetables begins to soften slightly (5 minutes).
Add salt, thyme, smoked paprika, and freshly cracked pepper to the skillet. Stir and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded Monterrey jack cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and crushed black pepper. Stir well and microwave for 45 seconds. Stir well again.
Grease a shallow baking pan. Spread the cream cheese mixture on the bottom of the pan evenly. Spread the lentil mixture on top and cover with 1/3 cup of the cheddar cheese. Add a layer of the veggie mixture and ½ cup of the cheddar cheese. Top this with a layer of the mashed potatoes and the remaining cheddar cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with The Greater Knead pretzels and bagels.
