  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • For extra crispiness, you can broil the squash for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • This recipe is a great way to use up summer squash.
  • You can add a pinch of garlic powder to the Parmesan mixture for extra flavor.
