Zucchini Casserole
Description
The Zucchini Casserole begins by greasing a glass baking dish with coconut or olive oil and placing a layer of sliced onions on the bottom. Thinly sliced zucchini, yellow squash, and tomatoes are then arranged in rows above the onions. A mixture including panko bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, Ms Dash seasoning or thyme, salt, and black pepper is sprinkled uniformly over the vegetables. Baking at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes results in tender cooked vegetables beneath a golden, textured topping.
This casserole’s flavor balances softened summer squash and sweet tomato with the savory, slightly nutty topping enhanced by garlic and herbs. The layering keeps the onions slightly sweet and soft while the other vegetables maintain their shape. The panko and Parmesan crisp during baking add contrast to the tender veggies.
It serves well as a vegetable side dish alongside meats or grains, suitable for a family dinner or potluck. The straightforward preparation and common ingredients make it approachable for home cooks seeking a baked vegetable dish.
