Description

A delightful casserole combining fresh zucchini, creamy ricotta, and earthy spinach, perfect as a side or light main dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, ricotta cheese, chopped spinach, Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Stir until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the zucchini mixture and stir gently until well combined.

Notes

Drain excess moisture from the zucchini before mixing to prevent a soggy casserole. Experiment with different cheese or additional veggies for variation.
