Zucchini-Cheese Casserole

Here's our first recipe!! It was submitted by my friend, Alice. I thought it was appropriate to make this our first recipe since many of us have zucchini coming out of our ears right now!! I'm adding the ingredients to my shopping list as soon as I get this posted!!! Sounds yummy!
