2 large zucchinis (cut into 1/4" rounds)
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1/2 white onion (sliced)
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 1/2 pounds Italian sausage (casing removed)
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 can artichoke hearts (in water, drained & chopped)
kosher salt (to taste)

1/3 cup bone broth (or chicken broth)
1 1/2 cups red sauce (see notes)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (for garnish, optional)

  • Add mixture to a 1.75 quart baking dish and layer zucchini rounds in between. Evenly distribute the broth on top of the dish. Cover with red sauce and cheese.
  • Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes until zucchini is slightly golden around the edges and the cheese has melted. Feel free to do a low broil the last few minutes, too. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

ZUCCHINI SAUSAGE CASSEROLE



Zucchini Sausage Casserole image

This was a real hit with my family! This recipe will make a large pan of casserole, so you may want to cut it in half. It's a great, savory meal all by itself, but it would also make a nice side dish for the holidays or be perfect for a pot luck. I made it in the middle of the winter for a cozy dinner side, and used up some shredded zucchini that I had frozen from the garden. To make it a little healthier, try substituting low-fat or fat-free ingredients.

Time 1h20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 cups zucchini, coarsely shredded (do not squeeze out juice!!)
8 links sweet Italian sausage (removed from casings or use bulk, approx 1.5 lbs)
1/2 cup butter
10 ounces carrots, shredded (appprox 2 cups)
2 medium onions, chopped
12 ounces herb seasoned stuffing mix (2 boxes, I used Pork Stove Top)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup (can also use cream of celery or broccoli)
2 cups sour cream
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded (optional)

Steps:

  • Line your largest baking pan with heavy duty foil or lightly spray with cooking spray.
  • Preheat a skillet on medium high, add all the butter and let it melt, do not brown. Saute the onions and carrots until the carrots are translucent but not mushy. Pour into a large mixing bowl. There will be a lot of melted butter in the onion mixture, this is necessary for the stuffing.
  • Using same skillet, crumble and brown the sausage (be sure to remove the casings). drain off the grease and add to the onion mix.
  • To the bowl, add all the remaining ingredients and stir well. You will not need to add any water.
  • Move the mixture to prepared baking pan. Bake at 350 for one hour or until golden brown on top. If using optional cheese, add to the top in the last 5-10 minutes of baking, Cheese should be fully melted before serving.
  • You may make this ahead and freeze, or freeze in portions after it is already baked.
