Zucchini Casserole

My family has been making this zucchini casserole recipe for over forty years.  It has simple ingredients but when combined, is absolutely delicious.

Zucchini Casserole

1 pound ground beef

3 tbsp. butter

1 onion, sliced

1 large or 2-3 medium zucchini, thinly sliced

1 (14.5 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes

1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce

Morton Nature's Seasons Seasoning Blend* to taste

Salt to taste

Shredded cheddar cheese

In a 5 qt. saute pan, brown ground beef and drain; set aside.  In the same pan, melt the butter, and saute the onion and zucchini until the onion is translucent.  Add the ground beef, tomatoes, and tomato sauce.  Season to taste with Morton's Nature's Seasons and salt; simmer about 10 minutes.  Cover with cheddar cheese and then cover with lid until cheese melts.

*Morton's Nature's Seasons Seasoning Blend is found near the salt.
