Spread the softened butter in a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish and sprinkle half of the bread crumb mixture inside the dish to coat. In a large bowl combine the vegetable mixture with the cooked macaroni , cubed mozzarella, the remaining Parmesan and Romano cheeses, and the nutmeg . Spoon into the prepared baking dish, top with the remaining bread crumb mixture, and dot the top with the remaining butter . Bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 to 40 minutes.
