Baked Parmesan and Bacon Zucchini Bites

Baked Parmesan and Bacon Zucchini BitesFor the past 3 weeks we’ve been harvesting a lot of fresh zucchini from our backyard garden. I’ve been canning homemade zucchini pickles, zucchini relish and last week I made these delicious Baked Parmesan and Bacon Zucchini Bites. They’re best served warm and are really easy-to-make. My entire family loves them!

Baked Parmesan and Bacon Zucchini Bites

1 small zucchini
olive oil
shredded Parmesan cheese
salt and black pepper (to taste)
dried oregano
bacon (cooked and crumbled)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Drizzle a tad of olive oil onto the aluminum foil. Use a paper towel to spread it around. This will help to prevent the slices from sticking to the foil and baking sheet.

Slice zucchini into 1/4″ thick slices and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly drizzle a tad of olive oil on top of each slice. I like to use the back of a spoon to evenly coat the slice. Continue until you have your sheet loaded up with slices (all in a single layer). Sprinkle a tad of salt and ground black pepper onto them.

Placed shredded Parmesan cheese on top. You can add a little or a lot, entirely up to you. Sprinkle a little dried Oregano on top and then a few pieces of cooked, crumbled bacon.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for approximately 7-9 minutes or until the slices are fork tender and the cheese has melted. Remove. Let cool for 3-4 minutes before serving. They’re best served warm.

You can store leftovers in your refrigerator in an airtight container. When you want to snack on them place a few of the zucchini bites on a microwave safe plate and reheat for 10-15 seconds. Delicious!
