Parmesan Tomato Zucchini Bake
Parmesan Tomato Squash Bake is a simple recipe with layered fresh tomatoes, zucchini and summer squash topped with garlic, onion and parmesan cheese!
Summer produce is finally here! Our garden is producing delicious vegetables and the farmers markets are bursting with local, fresh produce. This time of year, I try to use fresh produce for every meal as we all know, soon enough, it will be gone.
Summer produce is finally here! Our garden is producing delicious vegetables and the farmers markets are bursting with local, fresh produce. This time of year, I try to use fresh produce for every meal as we all know, soon enough, it will be gone.
In my neck of the woods, zucchini, squash and tomatoes seem to be the most plentiful vegetables and we look for different ways to get creative with them.
We are so lucky that our garden produces so much produce and have tried every recipe that you can imagine with zucchini and tomatoes- we always make a version of my Homemade Tomato Sauce
each year and can it. This one is one of my favorites and I cannot believe that I have not shared it with you until now.
If you do not like a lot of black pepper, feel free to skip that. If you only have zucchini or summer squash, you can just use one but it will not be as colorful. If you want to use mozzarella instead of parmesan, that's fine. Or you could even do cheddar cheese instead.
It is so, so easy to make! If you only have zucchini or summer squash, you can just use one of them. If you prefer mozzarella instead of parmesan, that is fine too. It is a healthy side dish that can be reheated well using summer's best produce.

ReplyDeleteMy husband and I are not real good zucchini-lovers just yet! Maybe this delicious looking dish will change our minds, LOL!
ReplyDeleteWhat kinds of tomatoes?
ReplyDeleteRoma would probably work best because they are less juicy but any fresh ones will work!
DeleteThis looks absolutely amazing! And it will go perfect with the fish we are having tomorrow (my 1 day of each week)! My hubby is looking forward to it also! Yumminess and healthy coming right up!
