Thinking of unique appetizer that is on the healthy-side? Try using zucchini!

If you are calorie conscious, bake the zucchini in a 375 degree oven for 20 mins.

This dish is so versatile  that it can be an appetizer or a side dish;

either way, boring zucchini never tasted this good!

Ingredients:

2 medium zucchini
2 tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper to taste
freshly grated Pecorino Romano
2 tbsp fresh tomato sauce

Wash the zucchini thoroughly and pat dry. Heat the oil in a heavy pan and cook the zucchini till golden brown. You will need to do this with a very hot pan or broil them in a hot oven so the zucchini don’t become a mush. Drain excess oil over paper towels. Salt and pepper to taste. Arrange on a serving dish, sprinkle with grated pecorino romano and a small dish of fresh tomato sauce for dipping. Enjoy with Fernet Branca and friends.

Stumble it!
