MA BETHIE'S ZUCCHINI BAKE
Basically a casserole-type dish that is delicious when served right out of the oven, or even at room temperature. Leftovers can be reheated in the microwave and are good the next day, too. A wonderful side with burgers off the grill or as a quick main course with the addition of cubed ham or cooked, cubed chicken.

Tips:
- Choose tender, young zucchinis for the best texture and flavor. If using larger zucchinis, peel them before slicing.
- To prevent the zucchini from becoming watery, salt it and let it rest for 10 minutes before cooking. This will help draw out excess moisture.
- Use a combination of grated and sliced zucchini to create a variety of textures in the bake. Grated zucchini will help bind the ingredients together, while sliced zucchini will provide a bit of crunch.
- Be careful not to overcook the zucchini, as it can quickly become mushy. It should still have a slight bite to it when you insert a fork.
- Serve the zucchini bake immediately, or let it cool slightly and then refrigerate for later. It can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
