Ingredients

  • 4 cups diced zucchini (from about 2 medium or 3 small; if you have more just increase the olive oil a little)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  • Cut the ends off of each zucchini. Cut in half lengthwise. Cut each half in half lengthwise again. Cut across the long pieces to make a small dice.
  • Place diced zucchini onto the sheet pan and toss with olive oil.
  • Roast for about 10 minutes or until soft when poked with a fork.
  • Remove from oven and salt to taste as desired.

Notes

  • Serve leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can serve this warm or pack in a lunch to be eaten chilled or at room temperature.
  • You can add these to an adult salad.
  • This is a great addition to my Chicken and Sweet Potato Bowls.
  • Add a handful of unsalted leftovers to a smoothie to add nutrition.
