  1. Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh zucchini, tomatoes, and basil make a big difference in the flavor of this dish. Try to get the freshest produce available.
  2. Cheese Selection: For a richer flavor, use a combination of cheeses. Mozzarella adds a great melty texture, while Parmesan provides a nice sharpness.
  3. Layering Technique: Be sure to layer the ingredients evenly to ensure each bite is packed with flavor. Press down gently after each layer to compact the ingredients.
  4. Homemade Marinara: For an extra homemade touch, prepare your own marinara sauce. Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil, add crushed tomatoes, and simmer with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar for 20 minutes.
  5. Herb Varieties: Feel free to experiment with different herbs. Thyme, oregano, or rosemary can add unique flavors to the dish.
  6. Leftovers: This casserole tastes even better the next day. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the oven or microwave.
  7. Serving Suggestion: Pair this casserole with a light green salad and crusty bread for a complete meal.
  8. Vegan Option: To make this dish vegan, use plant-based cheese and ensure your marinara sauce is free of animal products.
