A Bountiful Summer : Zucchini Casserole




Here is a quick six ingredient recipe using the bountiful vegetables from your garden, local farmers market or CSA box. This recipe freezes and reheats well. It is always a big hit at parties and picnics.

HEATHER'S ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE
  • 2 to 3 large zucchini, peeled and sliced
  • 2 to 3 large tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 to 2 large onions, sliced
  • 1 to 2 cups shredded cheddar
  • 1/4 to 1/3 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 to 1 stick butter, cut into squares
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Place layer of zucchini on bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add a layer of tomatoes and onions followed by 1/2 of the amount of cheese. Repeat.

Top with bread crumbs and butter. Cover and bake for about an hour. Remove cover and bake until brown and bubbly.

Enjoy!

  1. Yummy. I did something similar with zucchini. I made a zucchini lasagna with the zucchini substituting for the noodles. It was a great lighter lasagna. But it was hard to slice the zucchini thinly and evenly. Any tips?

  2. Honestly, a sharp knife and a little patience works best for me to slice thin zucchini :) Do you have a food processor/slicer or a mandolin? These work well but I am too lazy to pull them out when making a quick dish like this!

    Thanks for visiting!
