  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchinis, sliced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 sweet onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

Notes

  • Mix yellow squash with zucchini for added color.
  • Try feta, parmesan, or gouda for different flavors.
  • Add cooked sausage, chicken, or turkey for extra protein.
  • Fresh herbs like thyme, oregano, or basil elevate the flavor.
  • For gluten-free, use gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed crackers.
