Looking for a delicious and easy way to make your zucchini surplus disappear? Zucchini au gratin is a delicious and easy vegetable side dish that can be made ahead of time and reheated later. You're probably familiar with the classic potatoes au gratin, but you can make gratin with any vegetable of your choice. A gratin is a casserole-like dish that's traditionally topped with a cheese or breadcrumb topping, and baked and/or broiled in a shallow baking dish. It's a great way to sneak in veggies under a creamy, crumbly topping. Check out our collection of nine zucchini gratin recipes you'll want to add to your summer rotation.
