Zucchini Cheese Squares Recipe
I just made this recipe for a party originally for an appetizer, but instead, we ended up using it as a side dish. It's delicious. But, the best part is, eating it for breakfast the next day. Tasted even better. You can eat the squares warm or cold. It's very similar to a frittata.
