A nice way to use zucchini. I used 3 medium-sized zucchini for this and sliced them into half-moon slices. I did add some garlic to the creamy mixture. I made this as written, but in the end saw no real benefit to the layering. Next time, I'd just mix everything together and reserve some cheese for topping. Also, I think the baking time is incorrect. The zucchini is to be boiled to fork-tender and then the recipe indicates to bake it at 425* for 45 min - 1 hour. That is way too high of a temperature for way too long of a time, in my opinion. I opted to bake this at 375* for about 40 minutes and that was successful. Overall, it's a great zucchini casserole. Thanx!
