An easy and yummy side dish that’s cheesy, healthy and delicious. Perfect for non vegetable lovers and for using up this year zucchinni harvest.
August is zucchinni season which is fine with me. I love cooking with this prolific and versatile vegetable and have many amazing zucchinni recipes to prove it. Zuchinnis are also really healthy and high in fibre and important nutrients such as vitamin A, C and magnesium. They are great for cooking as their mild taste adds a subtle, sweet flavour to many dishes. This recipe is a new one for me, and has now become one of my favorites.
Making Zucchinni Parmesan
This recipe is very simple. Just slice the zucchinnis and toss in a bowl with oil, vegan parmesan and seasonings. You then place them on a baking sheet and bake until slightly browned and crisp. So easy and so delicious!
For even baking, make sure the zucchinni slices are evenly laid out on the sheet. Then add another topping of vegan parmesan before baking. This will make it even more cheesy and the coating crisp.
