Description
A quick and cheesy zucchini‑dill casserole that’s perfect for busy weeknights and a great way to use up summer zucchini.
Ingredients
- 1 cup baking mix
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon dried dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large eggs, slightly beaten
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 3 cups diced zucchini
- 1 large onion, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the baking mix, Parmesan cheese, dried dill, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and add the beaten eggs and canola oil. Stir until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
- Gently fold in the diced zucchini and chopped onion until the vegetables are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Grease a 1½‑quart baking dish, pour in the mixture, and spread it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute baking mix with a homemade blend of 1 cup all‑purpose flour, 1½ teaspoons baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt, or use a gluten‑free baking mix. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
- Fresh dill can be used instead of dried—use 3 tablespoons if using fresh. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
- Neutral oils like vegetable or light olive oil, or even melted butter, can substitute for canola oil. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
- Peel the zucchini? You don’t have to—keeping the skin adds color and nutrients. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze portions for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 15–20 minutes. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
