    Ingredient swap: This dish is very versatile; you can add sliced potatoes, mushrooms or tomatoes, or try swapping Parmesan with Gruyere or Fontina cheese. For a gluten-free version, just skip the bread crumbs.

Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 2 - medium zucchini
  2. 2 - medium yellow squash
  3. 2 tablespoons - olive oil plus more for drizzling
  4. 2 cloves - garlic minced
  5. 1 - small shallot minced
  6. 1/4 cups - bread crumbs or panko
  7. 1/2 cups - grated Parmesan OR Gruyere OR Fontina

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

Using a knife or mandolin slicer, thinly slice zucchini and squash to roughly 1/8-inch thick.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots and saute until aromatic, just a few minutes.

Add zucchini and squash and saute for about 5 more minutes, tossing frequently with tongs, just to cook everything slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, stir together parmesan and bread crumbs.

Place half of vegetables into prepared baking dish and top with half of Parmesan and bread crumb mixture; then top with remaining vegetables and remaining cheese / bread crumb mixture.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove tin foil and bake for 10 more minutes or until everything is bubbly and golden.

Time-saving tip: Everything can be fully assembled, covered and kept in fridge for hours before baking.
