Italian Zucchini Casserole
  1. Preheat the oven to 375f and set the rack to the middle level. In a bowl, mix together the ingredients for the seasoned breadcrumbs and set aside.

  2. Use a mandoline or sharp knife to make thin slices of the zucchini (lengthwise), tomatoes, and onions. Drain the sliced tomatoes and pat dry both the tomatoes and zucchini with paper towels before the layering process.

  3. Oil a 9x13 baking dish. Place a few layers of zucchini then drizzle extra virgin olive oil and season with salt, pepper, oregano, and Pecorino Romano cheese. Next, add a few layers of onions and drizzle the olive oil and season in the same manner. Finally layer the tomatoes, drizzle the oil and season. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top and grate a bit more cheese. Drizzle more oil if required. The breadcrumbs should be well moistened.

  4. Bake for 45 minutes or until bubbly. Most of the liquid should be evaporated at this point. If the breadcrumbs aren't golden brown you can broil for the last 1-2 minutes but watch very carefully. Wait at least 10-15 minutes before serving so that the juices settle. Enjoy!
