EASY ZUCCHINI SCALLOPED POTATOES

3 medium potatoes

2 medium or small zucchini

1/4 to 1/3 cup reduced-fat margarine

2 tablespoons dried onion flakes

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

1 pint fat-free half-and-half

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (reduced-fat if desired)

1/4 cup bread crumbs

Peel and slice potatoes and zucchini into thin slices. Layer 1-3 of the potatoes and zucchini in an 8-inch square, or 2-quart round casserole dish. Sprinkle salt, pepper and onion flakes. Dot with a third of the margarine. Repeat layers. Pour the half-and-half over the potatoes and zucchini. Microwave on high for 10-12 minutes, stopping to stir once or twice to make sure they are immersed. Sprinkle with cheese and bread crumbs, then bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and topping is crunchy.
