- Fresh Herbs: To use fresh instead of dried, substitute 1 tablespoon of fresh for 1 teaspoon of fresh.
- Parmesan Cheese: You could also use Asiago or Romano.
- Zucchini Spears:
- Zucchini Spears:
- For 6 - 8 Inches Long: For this sized zucchini, you can get about 12 spears, that are 3 1/2 - 4 inches, after you cut the top and end off, then cut it into quarters, and slice those quarters into 3 spears.
- For 9 + Inches Long: For the big guys, you'll just want to cut your zucchini into thirds (or even quarters if they're real big), then half and them, and cut those into 4-5 spears. These spears will still be pretty big, mostly in height from the seeds, so then you can slice off some of the seeds.
