my favorite veggie side

main dishes get most of the recipe love on this blog, but there's one really simple side that we eat a lot, and we both really love: baked zucchini with mozzarella.

i think i originally got this idea from pinterest/another blog awhile back, but the recipe is from memory at this point!

you will need:


  • zucchini (duh)...decide how much you want based on the size of the zucchini in your store and how many people are eating. usually i just get one for each of us.
  • seasoning salt (we usually use lawry's or garlic salt. you could also just mix plain table salt with any seasoning you like!)
  • shredded mozzarella

1. preheat your oven to 350.
2. wash and slice zucchini into rings, about 1/2" wide.
3. line a baking sheet with tin foil, and place the zucchini slices on it in a single layer.
4. sprinkle each zucchini with seasoning salt. 
5. bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes.
6. remove from the oven and sprinkle mozzarella on each zucchini. put back in the oven and bake until cheese is melted (about 5 more minutes). 

this recipe is simple, fast, and pretty healthy, so it makes its way into our rotation often. 

hope you enjoy!
