Great side dish. Could also go well with a bit of fried, chopped bacon. I used tasty cheese instead of cheddar and it still worked well.

This was really easy to make and is pretty quick, too. And it's so good. I'll make this often!! Thanks, breezermom. We all enjoyed this very much.

We absolutely love zucchini and this dish was so delicious. I decided to steam the zucchini, but otherwise made as directed. Will definitely make this dish again. Made for the For Your Consideration tag game.

This was a delicious side dish for the grilled steak I had for dinner today. I steamed the zucchini instead of par boiling it, and used low fat sour cream instead of full fat. Got great reviews from the vege eaters in my family!

Very, very easy and tasty side dish to make. The best part was that I had everything on hand. It couldn't be any simpler to make with those few ingredients. It was a nice side our our pork tenderloin the other night. I can't think of anything I would change on this (except maybe a dash of pepper for good measure). Thank you for posting your recipe. It is saved. (Made for PRMR)
