Crispy Parmesan Roasted Squash

Ingredients:

• 2 medium yellow squash or zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

• Optional: 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs or fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. Prepare Squash:
   Wash and dry the squash, then slice into about 1/4-inch thick rounds.

3. Season Squash:
   In a large bowl, toss the squash slices with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

4. Add Parmesan:
   Sprinkle the grated Parmesan over the squash slices and toss again gently to coat them with cheese.

5. Arrange on Baking Sheet:
   Lay the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don’t overlap (this helps them get crispy).

6. Roast:
   Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the squash is golden brown and crispy at the edges.

7. Serve:
   Remove from the oven and sprinkle with dried Italian herbs or fresh parsley if you like. Serve immediately for best crispiness.
