Cheesy Zucchini Cornbread Casserole
After a long day, nothing beats coming home to a comforting dish like Cheesy Zucchini Cornbread Casserole. Comfort food has always been very important to me because of my Midwest upbringing. The comforting taste of cornbread meets the brightness of zucchini in this meal, which is topped with gooey cheese. A night in, a potluck, or a family meal would all be ideal occasions for this. On top of that, it’s a great method to use any extra zucchini you may have picked up at the market or from your garden.
To keep things light, this dish goes well with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables. Pair it with some grilled chicken or a flavorful roast for a heartier dinner. If you want it very spicy, add some hot sauce or sour cream on top!
