Parmesan Zucchini- holy cow yum!



Recommended Posts

Found this on Pintrest- I used Italian romesco zucchini from my garden. I'm not a fan of zucchini usually but now zucchini won't be laying around on the vine until they're as big as baseball bats! Try dipping with spaghetti sauce or Bolthouse ranch yogurt dressing- so yummy, and easy!

Preheat oven to 400 F

One large zucchini

1/3 cup fresh shredded Parmesan cheese

Salt & pepper to taste

1 1/2 tsp Garlic powder- or for even more delish flavor, Johnny's Parmesan garlic powder

1 Tbsp Olive oil

Cut zucchini in half width wise, then slice into thick slices (like the type you would make if you you were making zucchini lasagna noodles)- about 1/3 to 1/2 inch wide and lay flat on a baking sheet with a silipat or lightly grease with baking spray. Brush zucchini with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Top each zucchini slice with 1tbsp Parmesan cheese and slide in the oven. Bake for 15 min or until cheese is melted & browned, and zucchini is tender. Enjoy!

If you want the zucchini crisper, just bake it for less time. An awesome appetizer for family and you, great snack to get in veggies and Protein (2

G protein with 1 Tbsp cheese). If you're craving Italian, this will make your place smell like you've died and gone to Italia! Mangia!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
