Zucchini Jack Casserole

[cjs]

This is just a great comfort casserole that uses up a lot of croutons, zucchini and cheese bits. I didn't have any jack, so used up Manchego, Fontina and cheddar - it seems to be a very forgiving dish. It's from an old neighbor who brought it to a Pig BBQ.

OH!! I'm being so damned stingy with those, I'll let you go first and if you like them/it, I'll try it. I was going to do the dip you gave me the recipe for using them when our friends were here, but looked like too much for just the four of us. But, I'm anxious to try it.
