How to Make
-
Step 1: Zucchini and Onion ... Add the broth, onion, garlic, and zucchini to a large saute pan and bring to medium heat. Cook 10-15 minutes uncovered on medium to medium high until the zucchini is tender and falling apart. Most of the liquid should be reduced. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the squash, it should be almost falling apart on it's own.
-
Step 2: Base ... While the zucchini cooks, add the eggs, sour cream, cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, seasoning, rice, salt and pepper to a large bowl and mix well.
-
Step 3: Casserole ... Add the mashed zucchini to the other ingredients and mix well. Pour into a 13x9 baking dish, coated with a non-stick spray. Top with the remaining parmesean cheese.
-
Step 4: Bake ... Oven to 350, middle shelf, bake 30 minutes until bubbly. If you want a little bit more color - transfer to the broiler for 1-2 minutes to brown the top.

Step 5: ENJOY, it is truly delish!!
