How to Make Alice's Zucchini Cheese Casserole

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped) and 2 cloves garlic (minced) and saute for 2 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Add 3 cups of zucchini (sliced) to the skillet and saute for 5-7 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
  3. Remove skillet from heat. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon of salt over the sauteed vegetables; toss gently to combine.
  4. Stir in 1 cup evaporated milk, 1/2 cup sour cream, and 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.
  5. Pour the zucchini mixture into a greased 1-quart casserole dish.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
  7. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
