Ingredients

2 pounds zucchini, sliced in 1/4-inch thick rounds, about 4 medium
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, 2 ounces
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

Butter a 10-inch pie plate or quiche pan. Put the sliced zucchini in a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes; drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Arrange the zucchini in the pie plate in an overlapping circular pattern. Season with salt and pepper between the layers. Top with the parmesan cheese and drizzle with the melted butter. Bake at 400º for 30 minutes, then bake at 475º for another 10 minutes until golden brown.

When I came home from my class today, there, waiting for my on my front deck was a pile of fresh zuchinnis from an unknown giver! I'm sure it was one of the neighbors. When the gardens overflow you have to get rid of them anonymously around here. LOL I will accept any free homegrowns anytime. :)

I have been making this for years but have a few tweaks to add to this recipe. I steam my zuchinni in veggie broth or chicken broth instead of plain water. It gives it an even better flavor. Also add a little minced garlic or garlic powder and you have a winner.
