Brighten up your meal with this vibrant and delicious Roasted Garlic-Parmesan Zucchini, Squash, and Tomatoes. This dish combines the fresh flavors of summer vegetables with the savory taste of garlic and Parmesan.


Ingredients

Scale

2 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds

2 medium yellow squash, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

 

Prepare the vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the sliced zucchinis, yellow squash, and halved cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Add the minced garlic, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss again until the vegetables are well coated.

 

Arrange on the baking sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

 

Roast: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are golden brown and tender, stirring halfway through for even cooking.

 

Add the Parmesan: Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the roasted vegetables and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly crispy.

 

Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh chopped basil or parsley before serving. Enjoy hot.
