For the Casserole
  • 2 cups Zucchini Provides moisture and bulk; substitute with yellow squash for a different flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Hearty Low-Carb Vegetarian Casserole in the Instant Pot
  1. Wash and chop your zucchini and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
