     This is so easy and taste really good. I've made this two times and really enjoy it. I use an olive oil spray instead of the butter, and sprinkle alittle garlic powder on. I'm a fan of zucchine. - 1/25/09

     I really love this recipe and have been making it all season. I do skip the cheese, use a little olive oil, and salt/pepper instead and make sure that I cut thick slices. I'm not joking when I say that this is my new substitute for potato chips! - 8/25/08

     we also cook asparagus this way; 400 degrees, spray spears with olive oil spray and sprinkle on parmesean...to minutes and perfect side dish - 12/30/08

     quick and easy. The Parmesean cheese is only 22 calories for a tblsp and it is enough to cover the zuchini. Satisfies my salt and crunch needs for the day. - 1/30/09

     This was good, but I pour season diced tomatoes over the zucchini and then Sprinkle on Parmesan Cheese. about 25 more calories. I do it with spaghetti squash too,its awesome dinner with whole wheat garlic bread - 6/22/09

     Its wonderful! I have always enjoyed zucchini this way. *Calorie reducing tip* I learned from a friend though is use the butter flavored cooking spray instead of oil or actual butter. It has all the taste of butter and ABSOLUTELY NO CALORIES or fat :D Great on popcorn or veggies too. - 1/18/09

     This was very tasty and easy! I also used the olive oil spray and sprinkled slices with Greek seasoning before adding the cheese. I baked the zucchini slices a bit before broiling, and they weren't as mushy. I served the slices with a side of no-sugar-added marinara sauce for dipping. Yum! - 5/8/09

     I love this recipe. It is so tasty and easy. I also had yellow squash so I added that. WONDERFUL - 8/17/08

     delicious but i used olive oil spray and i was cooking chicken at the same time so i cooked it at 350 for 10 mins and raised temp to 425 for 5mins - 1/21/09
  • MELYMEL
     Yea, a new way to eat my fav veggie! I used EVOO and sprinkled garlic powder on them before baking...yummy! - 1/17/09

     Used olive oil and added garlic powder. Be sure to slice the zucchini thinly - thick slices were too soggy. Will make it again. - 8/28/09

     I make this with light virgin olive oil & used romano cheese instead. I don't use any type of butter. It's very tasty with the olive oil also. - 1/15/09
  • TAYANZ
     This was good, I used olive oil (brushed on with a pastry brush). Yummy, thanks. - 1/19/09
  • AMMONS_GIRL
     This recipe is quick and easy. I have lots of zucchini and yellow squash in my garden and this works well with both. Leftovers don't taste so great after being in the fridge, but it's great fresh from the oven. Thanks! - 7/16/09
  • MAVERICK1616
     I love zucchini and summer squash anyway, but this makes it even better. I have also done zucchini and summer squash with olive oil and garlic sea salt on the grill, then removed and topped with finely grated fresh parmesan. MMMM...good!! - 6/18/08
  • SMILEY_MOM_GINA
     I am a certified zucchini and cheese lover. This came out surprisingly wonderful. I've been missing fried zucchini and this recipe is good enough to make me forget all about the greasy covered in bread version. Totally will make it again! - 7/2/09
  • LAWGIRL83
     this is a very tasty dish. i like to add a dash of garlic salt and pepper and some crushed red pepper flakes for some heat. i aso use shredded as opposed to grated cheese to add some texture. you can also do this with eggplant and it comes out really nicely. - 5/6/09
  • PAULA3420
     I am a zucchini lover and the best park of this recipe is how easy it is to prepare. The browned cheese
    is nutty and salty and I am guilt free eating vegtables that taste so good. TRY IT YOU WILL LIKE IT! - 6/24/09
  • MONI2200
     I am looking forward to trying this recipe. I even went through and read every comment for extra ideas! I am a huge zucchini lover but will probably try it with squash and mushrooms too! I have always loved fried zucchini done in egg and bread crumbs so this is a good way to get my zucchini fix! - 3/12/09
  • CD1240856

  • KSGNAGEY
     This is great!! A quick and tasty way to get some veggies on the table. I have made this as a side dish a couple times now and the BF loves them. I also sprinkled a little garlic pepper on them before the cheese. - 2/15/09
  • MISSPAYNE38
     This was really good, but I used a flavored basil grape seed oil instead and wow it was tasty - 2/11/09
