Zucchini Cornbread is Worth the Try.


ZYMAROPITA:

Preheat oven to 375*

Grate 4 zucchini (I use a big food processor) and a pinch of salt. Let sit in a strainer to draw out the moisture.

 

 



 

 

 

Chop 1 Vidalia onion. Sautee onion in 2 T butter until transparent.

 

 

 



 

 

 

 COMBINE:

 



 

1 box Jiffy Corn Bread/Muffin Mix 

½ c cream of wheat,

1 stick softened butter

5 eggs

16 oz. small curd cottage cheese

8 oz. well crumbled feta cheese

½ c milk

(I will also add any grated hard cheese I have including asiago, Parmesan, or Romano.)

 




 

 

Drain and squeeze zucchini and add to transparent onions and sauté for a few more minutes to remove more moisture.

 

 



 

 

Add zucchini/onion mixture to other ingredients in bowl. Stir and put in greased 9x13 cake pan.

 

 

 

 

Bake for 40-50 minutes or until golden on top.

 

 



 

 

If you can wait, cool for 15 minutes.  You can also serve at room temperature or cold.  Any way you serve it, it's delicious!

I've made a similar recipe, but made cornbread muffins instead. I'm going to try the one you posted, it looks delicious. We've also made these into hushpuppies, but without adding in cheese.
