Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 Farenheit, and get a glass pie dish.
• Slice zucchini lengthwise into ½ inch strips.
• Lay zucchini strips on bottom of pie plate to roughly cover the bottom. Small spaces are ok.
• Sprinkle ~1/3 to 1/2 cup of the croutons (I really just eyeballed it - a couple of handfuls).

• Sprinkle another layer of croutons, 1/3-1/2 cup or so.
• Drizzle a tablespoon or two of olive oil all around (again I just eyeballed it).
• Grind pepper over the top so the whole top is dusted lightly (~1/4 to 1/2 tsp worth, or to your liking).
• Sprinkle sea salt all around (again 1/4 to ½ tsp or to your liking).
• Cover with layer of whatever shredded cheeses you have.
• Bake in 450 F oven for about 11 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 and bake until the cheese looks browned and sort of crispy ~3-5 minutes (or whenever it looks good to you - my croutons got pretty brown).
• Remove from oven. Slice, like a pie, between each tomato slices (i.e. into fifths).
• Remove piece with spatula, to plate or bowl and drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette to your taste.
