Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-cup baking dish with some of the butter, ensuring even coverage.
-
Layer half of the potato slices in overlapping rows at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
-
Dot the potatoes with a little butter and sprinkle with a pinch of fresh sage, dried sage, dried tarragon, and salt to taste.
-
Layer half of the sliced green peppers, half of the sliced onion, half of the long grain rice, and half of the sliced zucchini over the potatoes.
-
Dot the layer with butter again, then sprinkle with fresh sage, dried sage, dried tarragon, and salt to taste. Repeat the layering process.
-
Arrange the tomato slices evenly over the top layer of the casserole.
-
Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 1½ to 1¾ hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded beautifully.
-
Remove the foil from the baking dish, and sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese over the top of the casserole.
-
Cover the dish again and return it to the oven. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is gloriously melted and bubbly.
-
Allow the casserole to rest, covered, for about 10 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to settle and meld further.
-
Garnish with fresh sage sprigs, if desired, for a delightful finishing touch.
