Tips:
- Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a better flavor and texture than zucchini that has been stored for a long time. If you can, buy zucchini that is in season.
- Grate the zucchini: Grating the zucchini makes it easier to cook and it also helps to release its moisture. This will help to prevent the casserole from becoming watery.
- Use a sharp knife to chop the onion and garlic: This will help to prevent them from becoming bruised and discolored.
- Don't overcook the zucchini: Zucchini cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked zucchini will become mushy and lose its flavor.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this casserole, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. I recommend using a sharp cheddar cheese or a Parmesan cheese.
- Serve the casserole hot: This casserole is best served hot. You can reheat it in the oven or in the microwave.
Conclusion:
Cheesy zucchini casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. This casserole is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
