Zucchini

This recipe is from my Dad. It's another great way to get your family to eat vegetables in disguise! Sorry I didn't get any pictures of this one. It went too fast!

Ingredients:
-Zucchini
-Olive oil
-Seasoned Salt (I use Lawry's)
-Parmesan cheese, grated
**There are no measurements for the ingredients because you can use as much or as little as you like!**

1. When picking your zucchini, make sure and get the smaller ones - they are sweeter. I try to find all the same size. The amount depends on you. We tend to eat 2 each per night, so that would be 4 zucchini total for us. You are cutting them in half, so you get 2 servings out of each zucchini.

2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash zucchini and cut lengthwise. Place on a large cookie sheet or sheet pan and brush the tops with olive oil. Season with salt. You can use as much or as little as you like. **If you have little ones and you don't want them to have salt, you can skip this step and just top with cheese.**

3. Cook for 15 minutes or until zucchini is tender. As soon as you pull them out of the oven, top each half with Parmesan cheese (in our house, we PILE IT ON!). The cheese will melt as the zucchini sits.

4. Enjoy!
