Packed with tender zucchini and gooey melted cheese, zucchini casserole is a delicious, vegetarian and comforting side dish packed with flavor. Made with layers of fresh zucchini and cheese, topped with a decadent layer of melted Brie, each bite is packed with cheesy goodness.
It’s a tasty way to use up fresh zucchini this summer. Zucchini casserole is a fantastic side dish to Italian dishes like chicken piccata, veal Milanese, and chicken caprese. It’s also delicious with roasts and stews, and can be paired with soup and a salad for a light lunch or dinner. Tips for the Best Zucchini Casserole
Grating the cheese yourself rather than buying grated cheese from the store will help it melt more evenly. Add some crunch to your zucchini gratin by topping the casserole with panko, breadcrumbs, potato chips, cornflakes or shredded pork rinds. Mix together the herbs and cheese. Try rosemary, oregano, basil, thyme or sage. Any cheese that melts well works great in this recipe. Try cheddar, Swiss cheese, mozzarella, provolone, blue cheese or gouda.
Zucchini Casserole can be made up to a day ahead. This casserole does not freeze well, so enjoy within a few days.
What goes with zucchini casserole?
This zucchini casserole is a very light dish, so it definitely needs some protein if you’re serving it as a side dish. Serve it with chicken breast, steak, or salmon.
