Ingredients

· 2 medium zucchini (about 1 pound total)

· 1 tablespoon olive or canola oil

· 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

· 1/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs, preferably whole wheat

· 1/8 teaspoon salt

· Freshly black pepper

Directions

· Preheat the oven to 450°F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

· Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds. In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini with the oil. In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, and a few turns of pepper. Dip each round into the Parmesan mixture, coating it evenly on both sides, pressing the coating on to stick, and place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

· Bake the zucchini rounds until browned and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove with spatula. Serve immediately.
