Parmesan Zucchini and Summer Squash

Zucchini and yellow squash are in abundance this year. We have about 4-5 a week right now to use. I finally found another recipe, I hate to even call it that, that my family will eat. Yes, we even gave away our stash one week because my kids were pleading for no more zucchini.

Verdict: We like these crispy but they are also good a bit chewy. We use FRESH Parmesan shredded cheese, yes – it really makes a difference, and freshly ground black pepper. You can add garlic powder, salt, or other spices to your liking. Experiment with the herbs and spices and find what you like. Try cayenne pepper and chili powder to make them spicier or rosemary and thyme for a savory chip.
