Here is a simple and delicious way to cook zucchini. Summer is coming up and all those with gardens know that zucchini can take up your life ;) so here is a fast and healthy way to cook up a great side dish!
Preheat oven to 400°
Take your zucchini and wash them. (About 3 small zucchini per baking sheet.) Don't peel the veggie, lots of the nutrients come from the skin of the zucchini.
Then cut off the ends, about 1/2 an inch. Now slice it, about 1/4 of an inch thick. (Try to do consistent widths so the slices cook evenly)
Take out a baking sheet and spray lightly with canola oil. Lay the cut zucchini down in a single layer. Now spray the zucchini with a little oil. Sprinkle on a little salt. Put in preheated oven for 8 minutes.
Take the sheet out and flip the zucchini over (you dont have to do each one but most of them, remember we are trying to keep it simple ;)
Sprinke a little more salt and then some parmesan cheese (doesn't have to be freshly grated, I used the regular kraft kind) and put back in the oven for 8-10 more minutes depending on if you like it a little more crisp.
Enjoy!
