This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add my own personal touches. I usually add some diced onion and bell pepper, and I sometimes use a different type of cheese, like cheddar or Swiss.

I've made this casserole several times now, and it's always a hit. The zucchini is so tender and flavorful, and the cheese and bread crumbs give it a nice crispy topping. I usually serve it with a side of rice or pasta.
