I love zucchini season.  And I love that I have an over abundance in my backyard.  And I especially love being able to sneak it into different recipes so that my kids will eat it.  Like this one.  We usually have rice for a side.  So why not make it amazing by adding cheese and zucchini!?

We have now made this recipe 3 times since.  I am telling you.  It is one of the best sides that we have ever had!  Everyone gobbled this down including the baby.

You have got to put this on the must make zucchini recipe list.  Everything about this is incredible.  From the cheese loaded inside to the zucchini hidden throughout, the flavor is out of this world!  It ends up being the star of the dinner table.
