Tomato Zucchini Casserole Recipe

Tomato Zucchini Casserole

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar cheese

1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon dried basil

2 cloves garlic, minced

salt and/or pepper to taste

2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced

5 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced

1/4 cup butter

2 tablespoons finely chopped onion

3/4 cup fine bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter a 9×9-inch pan.  In a large bowl, combine Cheddar, Parmesan, oregano, basil, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.

Arrange half of the zucchini slices in the pan. Sprinkle 1/4 of the cheese and herb mixture on top. Arrange half of the tomatoes, and top with another 1/4 of the cheese mixture. Repeat layers.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, and cook until soft and translucent. Stir in breadcrumbs; cook until they have absorbed the butter. Sprinkle on top of casserole.

Cover loosely with foil, and bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and bake until the top is crusty and the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
