Introduction

I had an abundance of zucchini in the garden this year. This recipe used one large one (about 1-1/4 lbs) and was a big hit! I would even make this for a light Sunday night supper. My son suggested adding ham next time and slicing tomatoes over the top. It takes some time, but can be prepared ahead. Try it! I had an abundance of zucchini in the garden this year.

    The ingredients left out how much cheese to shred. So we eyed the cheese that we added to the mix and then covered it nicely with a layer of cheese. :) - 11/28/09
