# Zutatenliste:

01 - 2 medium zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
02 - 2 yellow squash, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds

→ Aromatics

03 - 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

→ Cheese

04 - 2 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese

→ Oils & Seasonings

05 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
06 - Salt, to taste
07 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
08 - Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning blend

# Zubereitungsschritte:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
02 - Slice zucchini and yellow squash into 1/4-inch thick rounds, ensuring even thickness for uniform roasting.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, combine zucchini, squash, garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and optional seasonings. Toss until vegetables are evenly coated.
04 - Spread the prepared vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to allow effective roasting.
05 - Roast in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until vegetables are tender and beginning to brown at the edges.
06 - Remove baking sheet from oven. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the vegetables. Return to oven and broil for 2 to 3 minutes until cheese is golden and bubbly. Monitor closely to prevent burning.
07 - Remove from oven and allow to rest for a few minutes. Serve immediately while hot.

# Zusätzliche Hinweise:

01 - Cut vegetables evenly to ensure they roast at the same rate and avoid soggy textures.
02 - Do not skip the broil step—this is essential for a crisp, golden cheese topping.
03 - For best results, serve immediately or store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
04 - A squeeze of lemon before serving can enhance the flavor and balance richness.
