  Zucchini Parmesan  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If you like our Eggplant Parmesan you'll love our Zucchini Parmesan!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Ingredients:


1 medium zucchini squash 

Tomato sauce, 26 oz

Parmesan or mozzarella cheese*

1 egg

1 Cup or more unseasoned bread crumbs (If you're Gluten-Free you can make you're own crumbs with your favorite GF bread.  White and brown rice flours also work well for coating.)

Several Tbls. olive oil







1. Peel and seed the zucchini if it's large then cut into 1/2-inch thick slices or strips.  (We cut our zucchini in length-wise strips because some of it needed seeded.)

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, also heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
 
3. Dip zucchini in egg and coat with bread crumbs.

4. Brown zucchini on both sides.

5. Coat the bottom of a high sided baking dish with sauce.

6. Place the zucchini in a single layer over the sauce, place a slice of cheese on each zucchini, top each with a fresh basil leaf.

7. Continue layering, sauce, zucchini, cheese, basil.

8. Cover with a lid or foil and bake for 20-30 mintues.





Serve over your favorite pasta with fresh crusty bread and grated parmesan on top! (If you're Gluten-Free use your favorite rice or quinoa pasta as well as bread!)

*If you are dairy-free, the cheese can be left out without changing the flavor very much.
