Zucchini Casserole with Stuffing Mix

Ingredients

  • 4 cups zucchini, sliced (about 2–3 medium)
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded carrots (optional but adds sweetness)
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom for vegetarian)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 box (6 oz) stuffing mix (like Stove Top)
  • ½ cup melted butter, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook vegetables – In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter and sauté zucchini, onion, and carrots over medium heat until tender, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Mix sauce – In a large bowl, combine cream soup and sour cream. Stir in the sautéed vegetables.
  4. Prepare stuffing – In another bowl, combine stuffing mix with the remaining melted butter. Stir until crumbs are coated.
  5. Assemble – Spread half of the stuffing mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Add the vegetable mixture on top, then sprinkle the remaining stuffing mixture over the top.
  6. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until the casserole is hot and bubbly and the stuffing topping is golden brown.
  7. Serve warm – Perfect as a side dish for chicken, turkey, or pork.

If you want, I can also give you a cheesy version of this recipe with melted cheddar in the mix. That would make it extra rich and creamy.
