Ingredients
- 2 small zucchini
- 2 small yellow squash
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- cracked pepper fresh, to taste, I like lots!
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup. (You can skip the foil if you want)
- Slice the zucchini and yellow squash into 1/8 inch rounds. You can half the rounds if you are a small-bite person, totally up to you.
- Add the sliced squash to a large bowl, and add olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat.
- Spread the oiled zucchini on the prepared pan. Do your best to make sure the squash are in a single layer.
- Sprinkle the pan evenly with shredded cheese.
- Roast at 400 for 9-10 minutes until tender.
- Turn on your broiler and move the pan up to the very top rack. Broil on high for 2-3 minutes. Don't walk away!
- Check it until it is as brown and crispy as you like it.
- Serve immediately.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Do your best to spread the veggies in a single layer on the pan, so they get nice and crisp!
- Storing & reheating baked Parmesan zucchini
- Any leftovers will last in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Any leftovers will last in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Reheat these in an air fryer or oven at 400 (wish I had an air fryer!), on a pan on the stove, or in the microwave (keep in mind that the texture won’t be quite the same as freshly roasted!).
- eep in mind that the texture won’t be quite the same as freshly roasted!
