Kolokithakia Me Feta (Zucchini With Feta)

Submitted by luvcookn

"This is loosely like lasagne in as far as it is layered. Serve this with a salad for a lovely quick Greek meal. The time for draining the zucchini and the resting after it is baked is not in the prep time."

With zucchini in abundance this summer I was looking for something different and this fit the bill. Great tasting and such a great side dish!
