Recipe video above. This is just a really tasty, quick and easy way to cook zucchini in the oven. For all those times you need a quick veggie side dish! A little sprinkle of parmesan adds great flavour, and breadcrumbs adds a touch of terrific texture.Roasting at a high temp makes the parmesan golden and gets some browning on the zucchini before they turn into watery mush.
