Provençal-Style Vegetable Bake

A layered bake of sliced red potatoes, Japanese eggplant, zucchini, and plum tomatoes seasoned with thyme, marjoram, and miso, topped at the end with Nutty Parm 2.0 and wheat germ. Sits somewhere between a Provençal tian and ratatouille. The book highlights wheat germ as Dr. Greger's favorite daily topping for its effects on cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar.
