Zucchini Rounds Side Dish ( Sandra Lee - Semi-Homemade )

Submitted by CHEFDLH

"This is a great little side dish Sandra Lee suggested serving with Spaghetti and Meatballs which we did but loved it so much I wanted to post it so it could be made with anything as a side dish. She concurs saying "it can accompany any entree." This is from her magazine's August/September 2009 issue. It is yummy and the kids even ate it happily. Great for garden leftover zucchini. Very flavorful. It is made with simple pantry ingredients besides fresh zucchini.Taste and enjoy. ChefDLH"

I made this as a side to Kittencals Moist Cheddar Garlic Oven Fried Chicken. <br/><br/>I'm not sure if this made a difference but I baked the zucchini on a Silpat and the zucchini didn't crisp up or dry out like the picture. There was quite a bit of liquid on the baking sheet. I also had to double the baking time because after 10 minutes the zucchini still looked raw. The flavor was pretty good, nothing spectacular.

These were really good. I made as directed as a side dish and had mashed potatoes and meatloaf along with them. I can see them being wonderful with lasagna or spaghetti with the italian seasoning on them. Thanks so much for sharing. Made for I recommend tag game.

What a great way of preparing zucchini! I luved the elegant simplicity of this recipe. It is easy to make, yet tastes superb! I used a low fat parmesan cheese for sprinkling and Penzey's Pasta Sprinkles as thats what I had on hand. Mmmm, yummy! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, Chef DLH! Ill make it again. Made and reviewed for Magic of Herbs- An Event in the Photo Forum June 2010.
