16 oz vienna sausage
450g
1 cup mayonnaise salad dressing
240g
1/2 tsp onion powder
1.20g
2 eggs
100g
1 tsp salt
6g
1/4 tsp black pepper
0.52g
1/4 cup butter
54g
1.50 cup cheddar cheese
170g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Zucchini:
Wash and slice the zucchini into approximately 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.
3. Cook the Zucchini:
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, until it becomes slightly tender but not fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Prepare the Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise salad dressing, beaten eggs, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
5. Add Sausage and Zucchini:
Add the sliced Vienna sausage and cooked zucchini into the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together until they are evenly coated.
6. Assemble the Casserole:
Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly.
7. Add the Cheese:
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
8. Bake:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the casserole is heated through.
9. Serve:
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious low-carb sausage and zucchini casserole!

Tips:

- Choose Fresh Zucchini: Opt for zucchini that are firm and free from blemishes to ensure the best texture and flavor in your casserole.

- Drain the Sausage: If using canned Vienna sausages, be sure to drain them well to prevent excess moisture in your casserole.

- Cheese Variations: Feel free to experiment with different cheeses such as mozzarella or Monterey Jack for a slightly different flavor profile.

- Bake Until Golden: Make sure to bake the casserole until the top is golden brown and bubbling for the best texture and taste.

- Serve Hot: This casserole is best enjoyed hot, so serve it straight from the oven for maximum flavor.

Enjoy this hearty and comforting low-carb sausage and zucchini casserole fresh out of the oven. It's a simple, yet flavorful dish that delivers on both taste and nutrition. Pair it with a fresh salad to complete your meal, or simply savor it on its own. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge and reheated for a quick and delicious meal anytime.
