Quick Zucchini au Gratin

I found myself with 4 small zucchini in the fridge and zero idea what to do with them. Though I normally meal plan BEFORE going to the store, I must have gotten these because they looked good. I do that sometimes: Get pretty produce with grandiose ideas of producing a Top Chef-worthy dish for dinner and then realizing that the hour and a half break to get stuff done won't be enough time. (Who's with me?) 

So I decide do stop thinking so hard about it and VOILA! I made this really yummy, fresh and quick side dish in 30 minutes TOTAL. 
Check it out:

INGREDIENTS:
4 small zucchini
1/8-1/4 cup grated Parmesan or crumbled goat cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil optional (though I'd suggest finishing off the dish with it rather than heating up the oil)

DIRECTIONS:
Turn the oven to 350. Using a mandolin or knife (carefully...), thinly slice the zucchini. Grease a baking dish and layer the thin slices on top of each other. Salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle on the cheese and pop in the oven for 20-25 minutes. That's it! 

Enjoy! And if you make this, post in on my Facebook page or Instagram or Twitter or wherever you'd like and use the hashtag #IzzyFitFood!
