Grandma

This is my version of a recipe I saw Giada make on her show. She puts bread crumbs between the zucchini layers but I think they taste soggy so I just put them on top. I sometimes just use an Italian shredded cheese blend as a substitute for the cheeses.

I've made this casserole with different types of cheese and they all work well. I especially like using a sharp cheddar cheese or a Monterey Jack cheese.

I love to add a little bit of chopped bacon to this casserole. It adds a nice smoky flavor and makes it even more delicious.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover rice. I usually add a cup of cooked rice to the casserole and it makes it extra hearty and filling.

I love that this casserole can be made ahead of time. I usually make it the night before and then bake it the next day. It's so easy and convenient.

I was skeptical about this recipe at first because I'm not a huge fan of zucchini. But I was pleasantly surprised! The casserole was delicious and I couldn't even taste the zucchini. I'll definitely be making this again.
