layered zucchini casserole

Dinner time was approaching, and we were all getting hungry. I wanted to use up some the zucchini we had in the kitchen.

So, I layered it with beef, mushrooms, spaghetti sauce, and cheese. I wasn't so sure if this would be a meal our family would eat, but this dinner turned out so good that we decided it was a keeper.

Two of the kids picked out the zucchini, but ate the rest and asked for seconds. It wasn't really that hard to put together, and tasted good.
