Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 2 medium yellow squash
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Grated parmesan cheese for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  • Quarter the zucchini and squash, then slice into 1-inch pieces. Arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the zucchini and toss to evenly coat.
  • Sprinkle evenly with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper (more or less to your taste).
  • Roast squash for 12-15 minutes, tossing with a spatula halfway through the cook time to ensure even browning.
  • Garnish with grated Parmesan, if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

Storing Leftovers: Leftover roasted zucchini can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days. Because of the high water content, freezing is not recommended. 
Reheating: To reheat your zucchini, add it to a skillet over medium-low heat and saute until warmed through. You can also reheat it in the microwave or air fryer.
