Fresh Peach And Zucchini Casserole Recipe

This delightful summer casserole, inspired by the New Jersey Peach Promotion Council, is a surprisingly delicious blend of sweet peaches and savory zucchini. A simple recipe, easily adaptable to your taste! I've halved the cheese and omitted the salt for a lighter, brighter flavor, and used dried thyme instead of fresh. Serve this comforting dish as a standalone meal or over fluffy basmati rice – it's equally satisfying either way! Feel free to experiment with fresh basil for an extra burst of flavor.
