How to Make Venison Zucchini Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown the venison over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess fat.
  3. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the zucchini, carrots, and celery. Cook for another 5 minutes, until slightly tender.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the browned venison and vegetables with the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, corn, and seasonings.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and flour until smooth.
  8. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the venison and vegetable mixture in the baking dish.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly and cooked through.
  10. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
