Zucchini Fans - Atkins Recipe




Ingredients:

8 small zucchini
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions:

A perfect addition to a spring meal, this recipe offers an easy way to turn
ho-hum zucchini into an exciting side dish. Use small zucchini. In
general, the smaller the vegetable, the sweeter the flavor.

1. Heat broiler. Place rack 4-inches from heating element. Leaving stem
ends attached, cut zucchini lengthwise into 1/4in-slices. Place on a baking
sheet and carefully fan out slices.

2. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil about 6
minutes or until zucchini is softened. Carefully spread fans out more.
Sprinkle with cheese. Broil 5 to 6 minutes more, until cheese is lightly
browned.

If you can't find small zucchini (about 3 oz), substitute one half of a
medium sized one per serving.
