Zucchini Casserole

Last night I created a zucchini casserole that my husband loved! It is a little tedious, but delicious.

Ingredients:
3-4 zucchini
1 lb spicy Italian sausage
1 medium onion diced
2 cloves garlic minced
16 oz sliced mushrooms
1 24 oz can tomato puree
Italian seasoning (approximately 2 tsp)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh mozzarella

Directions:
Saute onions and garlic in olive oil, till onions are translucent. Add the sausage and brown. When the sausage is almost done add the mushrooms and cook 2-3 minutes. Add the tomato puree, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper and simmer while preparing the rest of the casserole.
Heat olive oil in a skillet and cut one and a half zucchini in to 1/8 inch thick slices. Fry the slices in the oil.
Cut the other zucchini in to planks about 1/8 inch thick. Place the slices on the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish. Completely cover the bottom.
Once all the zucchini is fried, cover the planks with the sauce. Then place the fried zucchini on top and cover with mozzarella.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes, then broil till cheese is bubbly and crispy.
Let cool 5 minutes and serve.
