This easy Zucchini Casserole is the best way to make use of fresh garden zucchini. The flavorful filling is cheesy and perfectly seasoned, eggs bind everything together and add protein, and panko breadcrumbs add the perfect crunch. Don’t miss out on this recipe!
I honestly can’t be trusted around this Zucchini Casserole, one small bite leads to 100 small bites. (You’ve been warned!) I thought that Zucchini Soup was my favorite way to enjoy garden zucchini, but this casserole is a fierce competitor!
The filling is perfectly seasoned, cheesy, (not the least bit watery), with eggs that act as a binder while also adding protein, and panko breadcrumbs that add the best texture. You really can’t beat this recipe!
