Calories 465kcal
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini [about 8-inch]
- 2 large Roma tomatoes thinly sliced [16 slices total]
- salt
- 4 Tbsp butter or light butter melted
- 1/4 tsp garlic salt
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp dry Italian seasoning
- black pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cup shredded gouda cheese
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 Tbsp fresh chopped basil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment or spray with cooking spray.
- Place the tomato slices on a paper towel and sprinkle lightly with salt. Gently press another paper towel on top and allow to sit while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
- Slice the zucchini in half. Cut a small slice from the peel on the opposite to give a solid base and keep it upright while baking.
- Mix the melted butter with the garlic salt, onion powder, dry Italian seasoning and black pepper to your taste.
- Brush the tops of the zucchini wit the seasoned butter. Reserve the remaining butter for the crumb topping.
- Sprinkle with 1/2 of the shredded gouda. Arrange 4 slices of tomato on each.
- Sprinkle with the remaining shredded gouda cheese.
- Toss the panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese with the remaining butter and sprinkle over the gouda cheese.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until fork tender. Garnish with chopped fresh basil, if desired.
