A hearty and nutritious vegetarian casserole that feeds a crowd. I've also made it non-vegetarian by adding a pound of ground beef with the onions and garlic. I plan on trying it with chicken breast as well. Adapted from Cook it Light Pasta, Rice, and Beans by Jeanne Jones (1994).

Steps:
- In a large non-stick skillet heat cumin seeds over low heat until aromatic.
- Add olive oil, onion, and garlic and saute until the onion is soft and translucent.
- Add the carrots, jalapeno, and tomatoes with juice and heat to boiling.
- Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes.
- Add the corn and zucchini and simmer 5 more minutes.
- Add the cooked pasta and the beans and mix well.
- At this point you can put the mixture into a 4 quart casserole, add cheese on top, and put in a 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes until the cheese melts. We usually just sprinkle cheese on top while it's still in the skillet. No sense in dirtying another dish :).
