GARLIC AND PARMESAN SAUTéED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Heat the avocado and garlic in a large skillet over high heat. While the oil it heating season the sliced zucchini with a small amount of salt and pepper.
• Add ½ of the zucchini. Toss the zucchini in the oil, then arrange them in a single layer in the skillet.
• Cook the zucchini undisturbed for 2-3 minutes or until browned, then flip and cook on the other side for an additional 2 minutes.
• Remove the zucchini from the skillet and set it aside.
• Repeat this process with the remaining zucchini. Once the zucchini is all browned, return it to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium low.
• Add the butter and red pepper flakes. Gently stir until the butter has melted.
• Remove from heat and immediately top with the shredded parmesan cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy!

ZUCCHINI WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Remove the ends of the zucchini and, if they are large, cut in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini diagonally in 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat, until they start to brown. Add half the zucchini, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove to a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the zucchini. Serve immediately.
• Note: If you cook too much zucchini in one pan, you end up steaming rather than sauteing it. I prefer to cook it in 2 batches.

7-MINUTE SAUTEED ZUCCHINI WITH GARLIC & BASIL

Steps:

• Place a medium saute pan over medium heat. When hot, add the olive oil and then the garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, for one minute. Add the zucchini along with a pinch or two of salt and black pepper. Saute, stirring occasionally, until bright green and fork tender, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and top with basil leaves. Add additional salt and pepper if desired. Serve.

PARMESAN ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Clean the medium (or large-ish, if you like your squash as I do!) zucchinis well, cut the ends off, and slice them lengthwise into quarters so that you have eight pieces.
• Coat the bottom of a baking dish with the olive oil and place the zucchini pieces in the dish.
• Sprinkle with the seasoning salt (I sometimes lightly spray the zucchini with pan spray before sprinkling on the seasoning salt), then with the Parmesan cheese.
• Place uncovered in the oven and bake for 20 minutes on 350 degrees F.
• Serve two pieces to each person as a side dish, and enjoy!

PARMESAN VEGETABLE SAUTE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the zucchini, mushrooms, onions, garlic, salt and pepper in oil for 6-8 minutes or until tender. Remove from the heat; stir in tomato. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

SAUTEED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion in the melted butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic; cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir the tomatoes and 1/4 cup water into the mixture; cover. Cook until the tomatoes have reduced slightly, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
• Pour another 1/4 cup water into the skillet, and add the bouillon cube; stir until the bouillon is dissolved. Add the zucchini; continue cooking until the zucchini is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with black pepper to serve.

ZUCCHINI PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a large pot boil the zucchini until tender; drain. Meanwhile, in a medium frying pan heat the olive oil over medium heat and saute the onion and garlic until the onion is tender.
• Combine the zucchini, onion and garlic in a 9x12 inch casserole dish, and mix well. Pour the spaghetti sauce over the mixture and stir well. Top with mozzarella cheese (use more or less depending on your preference).
• Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is bubbly.
