Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 5  medium zucchini
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 3 oz Parmesan cheese or white cheddar cheese (thinly shaved )
  • 4 tbsp shredded Parmesan cheese

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with foil. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder and minced garlic.
  • Slice zucchini cross-wise, like an accordion, but only slice about 2/3 of the way down. Space slices about 1/2 inch apart.
  • Place zucchini on prepared baking sheet. Brush zucchini with garlic olive oil mixture, making sure to include the minced garlic. You can always spoon on the minced garlic if you aren't able to get it on the zucchini with your brush.
  • Roast zucchini in the oven for about 15 minutes or until zucchini is just tender. Remove zucchini from oven.
  • Stuff a thin shaving of cheese into each of the zucchini cuts. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Place zucchini back into the oven and set your oven to low broil. Cook zucchini for about 5 more minutes or until cheese is melted and begins to bubble and brown. Serve immediately.
