Equipment

Ingredients

6 cups zucchini ¾" cubed
¼ cup butter
½ cup onion diced
1 package stuffing mix divided
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
2 eggs
¾ cup milk
¾ cup water (or less if needed)
3 tablespoons butter melted
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a two-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
Cook onion in butter on medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini and cook for 4-5 more minutes to remove some water.
In a medium bowl, combine ½ of the stuffing mix, ½ of the cheddar cheese, eggs, milk, butter, and the zucchini mixture. Add just enough water for the stuffing mixture to be moist. Spread into a baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining stuffing mixture, remaining cheeses, and 3 tablespoons of butter. Sprinkle over zucchini mixture.
Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until stuffing is lightly browned.

Notes

Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days.
