• 2 tbsps olive oilNutrition

3. 3Lay the zucchini slices next to each other on the cookie sheet. Be sure not to overlap the slices.
4. 4Sprinkle the zucchini with salt and pepper to taste (or sprinkle a little basil for extra flavor).
5. 5Place in broiler about 4" from the element and watching closely allow the zucchini to turn a nice brown. Takes about 6 minutes (don't be afraid to brown zucchini pretty good, just not black!).
6. 6Pull out zucchini and sprinkle generously with parmesan cheese on top.
