Creamy Zucchini Rice Casserole image

I have searched for a good zucchini rice casserole for many years that tastes like a dish I used to buy at a little corner restaurant in Birmingham, Michigan back in the mid 80's. I have still not found that exact recipe, but I have tried many and have come up with this (best of all recipes - that I've tried)
