- Hey everyone, it's Natasha

Today we're making a zucchini potato bake
that's creamy and cheesy with a sauce
that tastes like garlic alfredo.
Simple ingredients with so much flavor.
We'll start with the sauce in a medium bowl,
combine two cups of cream, one cup of Parmesan cheese,
two tablespoons of chopped chives
and two minced garlic cloves.
(upbeat music)
(quick knife slicing)
That's all there is to the sauce, it's so easy,
just stir it together and set it aside.
On to the zucchini.
(knife chop)
Remove the ends and carefully slice your zucchini
into 1/4 inch thick rings.
Zucchini will cook faster so you'll wanna slice
the zucchini thicker than the potatoes.
Transfer those to a large mixing bowl
then peel and very thinly slice your potatoes.
Cut them to about 1/16 of an inch thick rings.
You can use a mandolin slicer if you have one to make
the cutting go easier, just be careful, they are sharp.
Add the sliced potatoes to your large mixing bowl
and season everything with one teaspoon of salt,
half a teaspoon of black pepper
and half a teaspoon of dried oregano.
Toss to combine then layer the vegetables alternating
the zucchini and potato slices.
You can double up the potatoes here and there since
there will be more potato slices than zucchini.
Arrange everything in a nine by 13 casserole baking dish.
(upbeat music)
Now pour the sauce mixture evenly over the top
and sprinkle with half a cup of shredded Parmesan cheese.
Bake this uncovered in a preheated oven
at 400 degrees fahrenheit for about 40 to 45 minutes
or until the potatoes are soft
and easily pierced with a fork.
Remember the thinner you slice your potatoes,
the faster it will bake.
Once it's out of the oven,
let it rest for ten minutes before serving.
Ooh yeah. (laughs)
I love that it's bubbling when it comes out of the oven.
Oh, yummy.
Garnish with a little bit of green onion
and now to serve.
Cause I'm hungry.
And it smells so good. (laughs)
This casserole is really easy, it comes together quickly
and then the oven does all the work for ya.
Ooh, look at how creamy that is.
Wow.
Oo hoo-hoo.
And some extra sauce it's like an alfredo sauce,
it is so delicious.
(laughs)
Okay, here we go, the taste test.
Ugh, and I love the cheese crust that forms on top.
This is so good.
Alright.
Mm.
Yum. (laughs)
It really is like an alfredo sauce
and a little bit of oregano in here goes a long way.
It gives it so much fancy flavor, (laughs)
kinda tastes like going out to eat.
This is a perfect casserole anytime of year
but I love it in summer because I get to use up some
of my zucchini and I have a lot, trust me.
This is delicious.
Serves a lot of people, simple ingredients, super tasty.
