BAKED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• To make the topping: In a bowl, stir together the panko breadcrumbs, thyme, Parmesan cheese and season with a sprinkle of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and stir until all the breadcrumbs are soaked with the yellow tint of the oil. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the dish and bake until the top is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.

• Cut zucchini and squash into rounds (as pictured)
• In a mixing bowl, use a spatula to gently combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the cut zucchini, squash, and the minced garlic.
• Prepare a baking sheet with foil and 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking (use a napkin to cover the entire surface of the baking dish)
• Place the zucchini and squash evenly on the baking sheet

EASY CHEESY ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• To a pot of boiling water, add the diced zucchini and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and cool.
• In a bowl, combine the parboiled zucchini, mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, eggs, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Pour into a greased 1 1/2 quart baking dish.
• In a bowl, combine the Panko breadcrumbs with melted butter. Pour breadcrumbs over the top of the casserole.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350°F for 35 minutes, or until zucchini is fork tender.

GARLIC PARMESAN ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 1 ½-quart baking dish; set aside.
• Place zucchini in a colander, sprinkle with salt, and allow to sit for about 10 minutes (this will help draw out some of the water from the zucchini). After 10 minutes, squeeze out the moisture from the zucchini. TIP: In order to make sure that you get most of the water out of the zucchini (and avoid a runny casserole), wrap the zucchini in a dish towel. Squeeze it and wring it out multiple times while it's in the towel -- you will be shocked by how much liquid comes out!
• In a large bowl, combine zucchini, onion, garlic, eggs, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, and cheddar cheese. Gently press the mixture evenly into the prepared dish.
• Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, pour melted butter over breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Stir until completely combined.
• After 20 minutes, remove zucchini from the oven. Sprinkle buttered breadcrumbs over the zucchini and return the dish to the oven. Continue baking for about 5-10 more minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini slices and season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and the black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is softened but still vibrant and green, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• While the zucchini is cooking, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the microwave or on the stove top, and set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of the cooled, melted butter with the sour cream, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and then the egg yolk. Fold into the zucchini mixture with 1/4 cup of the grated Parmesan cheese and 1 tablespoon of the chives.
• Spray a 7 X 11-inch or 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray, then transfer the zucchini mixture to the dish. In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs with the remaining melted butter and Parmesan cheese, plus the remaining chopped chives. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the zucchini. Cover with foil and bake until warmed through and the cheese has started to melt, about 15-20 minutes. Remove the foil and raise the oven temperature to 450°F. Bake until the top is browned and the filling is bubbling at the edges, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with more fresh chives if desired, and serve.
