For an extra layer of flavor, consider sautéing the zucchini and bell pepper in a little olive oil before adding them to the casserole. This will help to soften them and bring out their natural sweetness. If you don't have cornflakes on hand, crushed buttery crackers or panko breadcrumbs make an excellent substitute for the topping. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese. Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of Italian cheeses would all be delicious additions. This casserole is best served warm, but it can also be enjoyed cold as a side dish or snack.
