Parmesan Crusted Baked Zucchini

Ingredients:
2 medium zucchini* (about 1 lb)
1 Tbls olive oil
¼ C finely grated Parmesan
¼ C plain dry bread crumbs
¹/₈ tsp salt
¹/₈ tsp pepper

* Clearly this varies widely with the size of the zucchini. I used zucchini from my own garden, and they're huge. A single zucchini weighs about 8 lbs. Obviously...use your judgment. Other squash and some root vegetables would also cook nicely this way. The tasted great on their own, but I served this with an Asian plum sauce, but a marinara would compliment the Parmesan crust well too.

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450°. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Slice the zucchini into ¼" thick rounds. Toss zucchini with the oil to lightly coat. Combine Parmesan,
bread crumbs, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dip zucchini slices in Parmesan mixture, coating evenly on both sides, pressing coating on to stick. Place in a single layer on baking sheet. Bake until browned and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove with spatula. Serve immediately.
