Zucchini Casserole Recipe 435

CHEESY ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a square 2-quart baking dish with olive oil spray.
• Slice the unpeeled zucchinis into 1/2-inch thick slices. Sprinkle them with salt. Place them in a colander and allow them to drain at room temperature for 30 minutes. This step helps prevent a watery casserole.
• Transfer the drained zucchini to a large bowl. Add the marinara sauce, black pepper, dried oregano, garlic powder, and 1 cup mozzarella. Mix everything together.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle it with the remaining mozzarella and with the Parmesan. Bake, uncovered, until the cheese is bubbly and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving it. Like all casseroles, it tastes best when warm or at room temperature.

TOMATO AND ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray.
• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add zucchini, salt and pepper; cook 7 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until crisp tender. Stir in garlic; cook 30 to 60 seconds or until fragrant. Remove from heat.
• Add tomatoes and 1/4 cup basil to zucchini mixture, stirring to combine; transfer to baking dish. Top with Italian cheese blend.
• In small bowl, mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle on top of shredded cheese layer in baking dish. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until cheese is melted and vegetables are tender. Top with additional chopped fresh basil.

GARLIC PARMESAN ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 1 ½-quart baking dish; set aside.
• Place zucchini in a colander, sprinkle with salt, and allow to sit for about 10 minutes (this will help draw out some of the water from the zucchini). After 10 minutes, squeeze out the moisture from the zucchini. TIP: In order to make sure that you get most of the water out of the zucchini (and avoid a runny casserole), wrap the zucchini in a dish towel. Squeeze it and wring it out multiple times while it's in the towel -- you will be shocked by how much liquid comes out!
• In a large bowl, combine zucchini, onion, garlic, eggs, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, and cheddar cheese. Gently press the mixture evenly into the prepared dish.
• Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, pour melted butter over breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Stir until completely combined.
• After 20 minutes, remove zucchini from the oven. Sprinkle buttered breadcrumbs over the zucchini and return the dish to the oven. Continue baking for about 5-10 more minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
