Thrifty Thursday

I realize it is Friday and not Thursday but my computer was not cooperating with my thrifting post yesterday and so...can we just pretend it is Thrifty Thursday?
I got this at the thrift store some time ago but didn't get around to sharing it here.  I've found several pyrex goodies lately that I've brought home and so when I found this I started to talk myself out of buying it.  Thankfully my oldest son (who loves everything 70s) brought me to my senses by telling me I "needed" it because it had a sunflower on it.  Such a smart fellah, he is. ;-)
 And, it has come in very handy for making all kinds of zucchini casseroles (perhaps he wouldn't have encouraged me to buy it had he known how often he would be served zucchini casserole from it?).
I've been using these grated zucchini and onions in all manner of ways - so far their favourite has been as part of the filling in black bean enchiladas.  I do love the extra bit of sunshine feeling that this dish adds to our meals.

What a lovely son you have to tell you needed that dish! Looks great and I'm sure some equally as lovely things are coming out of it. ;)
