Zucchini Bread Parmesan!! Sooo! Good!!

Ingredients:

6 zucchini – sliced lengthwise – about ¼ inch thickness
8 oz. Monterey Jack cheese – shredded
7 slices of bread – soaked in milk
Grated Romano cheese
Olive Oil

For the Sauce:

7 Cloves of garlic – crushed & chopped
1 Large sweet onion – sliced
1 Healthy handful of fresh cilantro – chopped
1 - 28oz. can of whole or crushed tomatoes
¼ cup of wine
Dashes of sea salt
Dashes of fresh ground black pepper
Dashes of oregano
Dashes of red pepper flakes
Olive Oil

Heat a griddle with a drizzle of olive oil and place the zucchini slices on the hot griddle. Grill until the slices are golden and then set aside.

For the Sauce:

Heat a large frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil and add the onion, garlic and cilantro. Sauté until the onion is a beautiful golden color. Add the tomatoes and the wine and continue to simmer on low. Add the seasonings and continue to simmer on low.

To Build the Parmesan:

Preheat the Oven to 350 degrees:

Drizzle a little olive oil at the bottom of a baking dish. Place a large spoonful of the sauce at the bottom of the dish and begin to build the parmesan. Start with the zucchini topped with the sauce, followed by the cheeses and then the bread. Repeat this process until all is used up.

Bake for about 25-30 minutes.

This dish is easy and delicious. I know you will love it.

Enjoy with Love and Laughter!

Ciao Bella,
Catherine

I want to make this. Yummy. I found that I can slice and oil the zucchini and put it on a baking sheet and pop it in a very hot oven and it's nicely browned in just a few minutes.

This looks delicious and we're always looking for newer and better ways to use a mountain of zucchini when they're in season.

Hi Catherine,
This dish has my name all over it for sure! I know my dad would love this one too. I really enjoyed your videos too. A four part series is a nice idea. That way you don't have to edit so much or condense the process.

Have a wonderful week friend!

This dish is full of taste and goodness of zucchini. I am afraid the cheese you mentioned is not found here in Hong Kong. Is there an alternative? The dish looks extremely good!

Catherine this sounds delicious. Cilantro does work so well wth zucchini. Now that zucchini season has finally started, I'm always trying to try out some new zucchini dishes. Have a great 4th.

Great recipe. I love Parmesan cheese and this is such a clever way to taste all its goodness!
I recently wrote an article on how real Parmesan cheese is made and on its nutritional value. Check it out and let me know your thoughts, I would really appreciated it!
