Ingredients

  • 10 cups zucchini, cubed into bite sides pieces
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 1 recipe Homemade Condensed Soup Mix, see notes for recipe
  • 1 cup greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups breadcrumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Fill a large stockpot with water and bring to a boil. Salt the water and add the zucchini, celery, and onion. Boil for about 8 minutes until everything is tender. It will continue to bake in the oven, so no need to overboil, as this will make for a more tender casserole (which isn't a bad thing!).
  • Meanwhile, prepare the homemade condensed soup mix. Drain vegetables and add soup mix and greek yogurt to the pot. Stir completely to combine, adding salt and pepper to season.
  • Mix your melted butter and breadcrumbs, stirring until the butter is absorbed into the breadcrumbs. In a 9 x 11 baking dish, add about 1/2 of your breadcrumbs, followed by the zucchini mixture, and topping with the remaining breadcrumbs.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes until breadcrumbs are golden brown. Serve warm!
