Recipe for Easy Cheesy Zucchini Bake Recipe

Ingredients

2 medium-sized zucchini, cut in slices or half-moon slices
2 medium-sized yellow squash, cut in slices or half-moon slices
2-4 T chopped fresh basil (or even less, depending on how much you like the flavor of basil)
2 T thinly sliced green onion
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
3/4 tsp. garlic powde
1/2 cup + 1/2 cup low-fat white cheese (I used Pizza Cheese, which is a low-fat blend of Mozzarella, Provolone, Romano, and Parmesan)
1/2 cup coarsely grated Parmesan (I would use a little less if you only have the very finely grated Parmesan from a can)
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Toss together the sliced squash, chopped basil, sliced green onions, dried thyme, garlic powder, and both kinds of cheese. Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper.
Put the mixture into an 8" x 8" casserole dish that you've sprayed with olive oil or non-stick spray
Bake 25-30 minutes, then sprinkle over another 1/2 cup of the pizza cheese
Bake 10-15 minutes more, or until the cheese is melted and nicely browned and the zucchini is cooked through. Serve hot.
