A little somethin' somethin' healthy

It has been awhile since my last post, but I am now on Christmas break (yay) so I will have plenty of time for updating my blog. Sooo, the other day I was scrolling through Pinterest and found this recipe that I just had to try (I am really into Zucchini all the sudden) Thanks to my sister she got some good action shots of me making our snack!


 
 
 Here is the actual pin I got this recipe from if you want to check it out here! But here is my version of this tasty Garlic, Lemon, and Parmesan Zucchini:
 
What you will need:
3-4 medium to large zucchinis
2 tsp of olive oil
1 tsp of lemon zest
2 cloves of garlic or finely minced (I used finely minced)
3/4 cup of Parmesan cheese
salt & pepper
 
Directions:
 

 
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees & line your cooking pan with aluminum foil
 
Step 2: Cut your zucchini in halves or fourths (cut it in half & cut the half in half) 
 
Step 3: Mix together in a small bowl your lemon zest, olive oil, and garlic
 
Step 4: Brush the mixed ingredients onto the zucchini halves (or fourths like I did)
 
Step 5: Sprinkle on the parmesan cheese to the tops of the zucchini
 

 

 

Step 6: Place in the oven for 11-13 minutes, then place your pan on the top rack of the oven and put the oven to boil until the cheese on the tops of the zucchini are golden brown

 
 
And now enjoy your yummy zucchini with your family &/or guests as a snack or appetizer!

I really enjoyed making this little appetizer and my mom and sister sure loved eating it too! More to come soon..
 

Your cook (lol),
