Steps:

- Mix melted butter and bread crumbs together.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or russet potatoes are the best choices for scalloped potatoes. They hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
- Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for slices that are about 1/8-inch thick.
- Use a good quality cheese: Cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan are all good choices. Freshly grated cheese will melt better than pre-shredded cheese.
- Don't overcrowd the casserole dish: The potatoes need space to cook evenly. If the dish is too crowded, the potatoes will steam instead of bake.
- Bake the casserole until the potatoes are tender: This will take about 45 minutes to an hour. You can check the potatoes by inserting a toothpick into the center of the casserole. If the toothpick comes out clean, the potatoes are done.
Conclusion:
Scalloped potato and zucchini casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover potatoes and zucchini. With its creamy sauce, tender potatoes, and flavorful zucchini, this casserole is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
