Cheesy Zucchini Casserole image

This tasty casserole is great for lunch, as a side dish, or a light supper. The recipe came from a cookbook called "Stand By Your Pan: Country Music Cookbook" by Diane Pfeifer. Her funny alternative country-music-inspired title for the recipe is "Don't Rock The Zuke Squash" :)
