Looking for a new way to use up your summer zucchini harvest? This creamy zucchini casserole is the cozy, cheesy side dish your dinner table didn’t know it needed. Packed with tender zucchini, sharp cheddar, and a hint of heat from Wood’s Vermont Ghosted Maple Syrup, it’s the perfect way to spice up your go-to casserole routine.

This isn’t just another zucchini bake—this one has character. It’s creamy, comforting, and just a little daring. Whether you’re serving it at a summer potluck, alongside grilled chicken, or as a meatless main, this casserole is a winner.

💡 Tips & Variations:

• Drain well: Waterlogged zucchini = sad, soggy casserole. Let it drain and cool before mixing it in.
• Spice it up: Love heat? Add chopped jalapeños or hot sausage to make this a hearty main course.
• Meal prep-friendly: Assemble ahead and bake later—it holds up beautifully.
