Zucchini With Fire Roasted Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Put a rack on a baking sheet.
• Use a mandoline or vegetable peeler to make ribbons from the entire length of each zucchini, as wide as possible (the first few may be too skinny). Make 48 ribbons total (you should get 12 from each zucchini). Lie the ribbons flat on the rack on the baking sheet (it's ok if they overlap slightly) and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Let sit for 10 minutes, then pat completely dry with paper towels.
• Put the tomatoes in a large bowl and toss with the Italian seasoning, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side down in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until soft to the touch and some of the juices have been released, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the ricotta, mozzarella, goat cheese, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper in a medium bowl. Lay out 2 zucchini ribbons lengthwise and slightly overlapping, then top with 2 more ribbons crosswise and slightly overlapping, to make a cross. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the middle of the zucchini cross. Tightly fold the zucchini over the cheese mixture one ribbon at a time, alternating between the crosswise strips and the lengthwise strips, so you end up with 1 zucchini square. Repeat with the remaining ribbons and filling. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Put the zucchini packs on top of the roasted tomatoes and bake until the zucchini is softened and the cheese is melted, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the arugula with the lemon juice and divide among 4 plates. Spoon the tomatoes and zucchini onto the plates and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to directions on box. Do not overcook.
• Saute onions in olive oil in large sauce pan.
• When onions begin to brown, add mushrooms, zucchini and squash. Add garlic, basil and oregano. Continue to lightly saute.
• Add fire-roasted tomatoes and peppers and stir.
• Add tomato paste, red wine and Italian dressing. Turn to low and simmer for three to five minutes.
• Serve over bow tie pasta.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
• Add zucchini, tomatoes, salt, and pepper.
• Cook until zucchini are tender.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Combine the zucchini, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
• Place in preheated oven. Roast until vegetables are tender and slightly golden, about 18 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and basil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven broiler. Slice the zucchini on a sharp angle about 1/2-inch thick and place on a baking sheet lined with foil and nonstick cooking spray. Coat the zucchini with nonstick cooking spray and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Broil, flipping once, until just golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium pot set over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and jalapeno and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin and tomatoes. Continue to cook until the tomatoes are soft and the sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, lightly mash with a fork and season with salt and pepper.
• Coat an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Place about 1/2 of the zucchini in the bottom of the dish and top with 1/2 of the tomato sauce. Repeat the layers and cover with foil. Bake until bubbly and hot, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil, sprinkle with the cheese and continue to bake until the cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes, sprinkle with the cilantro.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easy clean-up), and lightly mist the foil with the cooking spray.
• 2. Place tomatoes and zucchini on baking sheet, and lightly mist with the cooking spray. Then sprinkle the sea salt evenly over the vegetables.
• 3. Roast in oven until vegetables start to lightly char, about 15-20 minutes. Serve immediately.
