Vegetables au Gratin with Okara Béchamel Sauce

I once made this dish with kabocha squash as the only vegetable and it turned out quite nicely. Considering the balance of nutrients, I also added other veggies and some Wiener sausages into this gratin. I also had some frozen veggies that came in handy.

I don't know if you can call this a Helpful Hint, but as I've written at the top, making this gratin becomes much easier if you can make use of frozen veggies! I highly recommend this when you're short on time. It's butter-free and still very tasty - if you switch the milk to soy milk, I'm sure you can cut down on the calories and make it even healthier.
