There will be 4 layers starting with squash, then sprinkle a 1/4 tsp nutritional yeast, a little vegan cheese and 1/2 tsp of crumbs on top of each tapas pan layer. Add a layer of squash, nutritional yeast, crumbs and cheese. Add final layer of cauliflower, nutritional yeast and reminder of the crumbs, grind some pepper over this last layer and cheese. Sprinkle 1/8 c milk over each tapas pan. Bake covered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 7 minutes to crisp the top a bit.
