Ingredients

1 1/2 Tbs Butter

8 Cups Thinly sliced Zucchini OR ( combo of 4 cups of zucchini and 4 cups of yellow squash)

1 cup sliced white onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup fat-free half-and-half (of course you can use regular!)

4 Tbs reduced-fat cream cheese (of course you can use regular!)

3/4 cup Panko bread crumbs (Japanese-style bread crumbs), divided ( a must)

3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided.

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat; add zucchini, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables are tender, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Add the half-and-half and cream cheese to the vegetable mixture; stir to combine, allowing the cream cheese to melt.

Set aside 4 tablespoons of the panko and 5 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons of the panko and 5 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to the vegetable mixture; stir to combine.

Coat a 2-quart shallow baking dish with nonstick spray. Spoon mixture into the baking dish. Sprinkle the top with remaining panko and Parmesan cheese.

Bake until top is golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes.

Enjoy!

Oh Lordy... I love gratins, and I love zucchini! I'm going to take the high fat route if ya don't mind... I could use a little extra weight ;-) and I totally agree with the phako... there is no substitute!

Thank you very much for the lovely post.

Take care,
Ray
