For a vegetarian option, substitute cream of mushroom soup for cream of chicken soup. Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers or mushrooms for added flavor and texture. For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Cheddar cheese instead of pre-shredded. The Zucchini Stuffing Bake can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Add 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. If you don't have cornbread stuffing mix, you can use another type of stuffing mix, such as herb or savory.
