Zucchini Casserole

• 3 cups shredded zucchini
• 1/2 cup chopped onion

• 1/3 cup tomato sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon salt , if desired

Heat oven to oven 375 F. Spray an 8-inch-square baking dish with nonstick vegetable coating or oil lightly. Squeeze zucchini between paper towels to remove excess moisture. In a medium skillet, heat oil. Add onion; sauté until tender. Transfer to a large bowl. Add zucchini and remaining ingredients except tomato sauce; mix well. Pour into prepared baking dish. Spread tomato sauce evenly over top. Bake in a preheated oven 30 minutes or until heated through. Makes 8 servings.
