Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchini squash
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsps olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Directions

  • Slice zucchini lengthwise in to 1/2" slices. Leave skin on the zucchini (you can also use summer squash).
  • Coat shallow cookie sheet with olive oil (or use cooking spay).
  • Lay the zucchini slices next to each other on the cookie sheet. Be sure not to overlap the slices.
  • Sprinkle the zucchini with salt and pepper to taste (or sprinkle a little basil for extra flavor).
  • Place in broiler about 4" from the element and watching closely allow the zucchini to turn a nice brown. Takes about 6 minutes (don't be afraid to brown zucchini pretty good, just not black!).
  • Pull out zucchini and sprinkle generously with parmesan cheese on top.
  • Place back in broiler for 1 to 2 mintes, just enough to brown the parmesan cheese and make it crusty, but do not burn.
  • Scoop out on to plate and serve.
