Ingredients or Variations

SQUASH Naturally, summer squash is the star here (zucchini or pattypan work great in this recipe too).

BREADING The light breading mixture of Panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and some seasonings like lemon pepper, paprika, and salt is what pulls this recipe altogether!

OTHER VEGGIES Why not switch up the recipe and add some of your other favorite veggies. Ensure you use ones that have a similar cook time, we love asparagus spears and bell peppers?

How to Roast Summer Squash

This yummy roasted squash is super easy. Just watch homegrown veggies get eaten with gusto!

Slice squash and toss with olive oil.

Lay on a prepared baking pan. Bake until tender.
Broil a minute or two to get the coating crispy and golden brown.

For squash that is tender-crisp, cut it a little thicker. For softer squash, cut it a bit thinner.

It’s mild and flavorful and this dish pairs with roasted meats, tomato based dishes, anything grilled. It’s a great all around side.
