This is a recipe my grandmother would whip up for us on the weekends. You can cook the zucchini and onion in a pan or roast them like I did in the oven. Either way, we loved her for the warm company and delicious food she always made us. She was an angel before she became an angel.
Another fresh ingredients only recipe that really is simple to throw together. You can use a mandolin to slice the zucchini rounds or your knife; not too thick and not too thin. Keep in mind they will bake with the eggs and cheeses too! You can make this meal gluten free by subbing in almond flour in place of the breadcrumbs, which is great! You can use any shredded cheese you have.
