Zucchini and Cheese Casserole

Kim127's Note:

I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but like everyone else, I seem to end up with an abundance of them from the garden. I found this recipe on another site (can't remember which one) and I really enjoy it, though I can't say its all that healthy. Gotta love the cheese!

We liked this cheesy custard type vegetable dish, the bread gave it a nice crunch too. Next time I might add a few mushrooms, thanks for sharing.

This was a nice way to use my 1 zucchini. I halved the recipe and it turned out so nice! Thank you for posting! I did cut the baking time just a little since I halved it.

Very good, we enjoyed this very much. Easy to prepare and full of veggie goodness, this was enjoyed by us all. I did give the zucchini and the onion 5 minutes in the microwave to soften them up a little, after which they were cooked to perfection in the oven. Good flavour, I will make this again, thanks, Kim!
