Does your zucchini runneth over in your garden? Or maybe your neighbor’s garden and they are graciously sharing?
If not, you will be hoping it does after giving today’s recipe a try. I don’t like zucchini, at least I thought I didn’t like zucchini, until I gave this recipe for Baked Zucchini with Mozzarella which I originally saw over at Jamie Cooks It Up. a try.
A few weeks ago I was in Utah for a Wilkes family dinner and I wanted to help contribute something to the dinner. When I saw the zucchini on the kitchen counter this recipe came to mind. It was a huge hit and disappeared quickly.
How can anything covered in mozzarella cheese be bad!?
- 2 medium sized or about 5 small zucchini
- Johnny’s Garlic Spread & Seasoning available at at Costco or Sam’s
- salt
- 2 C shredded mozzarella cheese if you don’t have mozzarella use any favorite cheese blend. The pizza blend or Mexican blend works well too Don’t worry about exact proportions. Just sprinkle the cheese on to the thickness you like – the more cheese the better for me!
- Slice zucchini into 1/2 inch rings.
- Place flat onto a large cookie sheet.
- Sprinkle with Johnny’s Garlic Seasoning and a bit of salt.
- Bake 350 for about 10-15 minutes or until crisp tender.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle the zucchini with cheese.
- Turn the oven to broil,.
- Place the cookie sheet back into the oven and let the cheese get all bubbly and a bit browned. This should only take about 3-5 minutes. Watch carefully.
- Do not bet distracted and forget about what is in your oven. Remove and watch them disappear.

Hi Leigh Anne, I just wanted to let you know that your link isn’t working. I was able to find it and it looks delish but I thought you might want to know about the link. Have a good day!
Thanks Elizabeth – got the link fixed!

Leigh Anne. I was able to get to the link but it can not be copied and the only way to print it is to print the entire column….not just a selection of the recipe.
Marla, The best thing to do would be to just cut and paste it into a word document. That should work.
