This is a favorite among some midwestern Amish, especially now whenzucchinis are plentiful and in season. Yum! Zucchinis are popular among the Amish because they are so versatile,zucchiniscan be turned into breads rolls, casseroles, patties, and even relishes. But this classic carrot casserole with zucchinis is a wonderfully hearty dish! Casseroles are popular among the Amish because they feed large groups of people and are very portable, you can transport a casserole on a buggy or in a bike basket. Give this a try at your next church pot luck and you'll be pleased with the empty dish you take home!

Can this be made ahead and then reheated?

Barb, three days is about as long as I'd keep this...veggies get a little soggy after that. You can, however, freeze this well!

This is a very popular dish in Australia, for school lunches, or an end-of-week use-up-the-veggies dinner, except we call it zucchini slice. People often put bacon or ham in it too.

Interesting, Laura, glad you can enjoy Amish365 from Down Under!

I don't normally like zucchini because I am a super taster. However, this has enough of everything I do like to disguise the taste of the zucchini. We just went to the Farmer's Market to buy the zucchini and carrots to make this. I can't wait! Thanks for posting a great side dish recipe.

I made this tonight and both mom and i loved it! It was moist, cheesy, and I couldn't taste the zucchini at all. I will definitely make this again. My mom's boss who we all love and who loves my mom lost his wife about 2 years ago. When I make a lot of something we give him some. I have some in a plastic container for him along with some other things I made tonight. This one is a keeper.
