Cheesy Roasted Zucchini

September 20, 2021 by Amber 11 Comments

Cheesy Roasted Zucchini is a wonderfully quick and tasty side dish made with zucchini, olive oil, sea salt, ground pepper and a blend of Italian shredded cheese. 

Simple, quick side dishes are a must. There is no reason to overcomplicate some dishes and that’s why I love this roasted zucchini. A few simple ingredients roasted in the oven for 10 minutes and you have a side dish that will go with any main dish! Bonus that the kids love this one too (it is cheesy so why wouldn’t they?). 

Cheesy Roasted Zucchini

Cheesy Roasted Zucchini are perfectly tender bites of fresh zucchini seasoned with sea salt and some fresh ground pepper. The melty cheese tops off each zucchini round with the added nuttiness and richness. 

Look for a cheese combination with both asiago and Parmesan cheese! However, just Parmesan cheese can be substituted for the Italian mix. 

Why Eat Zucchini

Zucchini is a fruit, in the squash family, that grows well in the summer months. It has many vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. The key health benefit to eating zucchini comes from the ample amount of vitamin A. Vitamin A has been proven to help with the immune system and for eye sight. 

Did You Know

The zucchini plant has a flowering blossom that is edible and often fried!

    Roasted zucchini is my favorite! We make it almost the same, but we use shredded parmesan cheese.
