I was feeling nostalgic the other day, so I decided to go through some of my old recipe books to look for that zucchini casserole recipe I loved. I love cooking and baking, and I have collected many recipes over the years from friends, family, magazines, and online sources.
As I was flipping through the pages, I came across a familiar handwriting. An old friend had shared their zucchini recipe with me on a scrap piece of paper and I just tucked it into the book. I’ve been making it over and over again through the years and think of my friend every time I do.
While it may be nostalgic for me, the recipe is fantastic as a side dish. Enjoy.

This a great side dish that an old friend of mine shared with me many years ago. Zucchini is one of those vegetables that is so versatile that it can go in breads and make casseroles. This also happens to be my fall back recipe for zucchini casserole.
