We could eat cheese with everything. The one thing that I love about the low carb diet, is that we’re allowed to eat cheese. I don’t think I could make a long term lifestyle change that cut out dairy. With that being said, we put cheese in at least one meal a day. We can’t help it. This cheesy, easy zucchini bake is no exception.

This dish is perfect for the cheese lover in your family. It’s creamy, cheesy, and the garlic helps add a pop of flavor. We’ve recently highlighted a lot of dishes that make you want to eat your vegetables and this baked dish is simple and serves that purpose.

With only 4 main ingredients, you can whip it up with what you may already have in your kitchen. Let’s get started!
