Zucchini with Tomatoes and Cheese
Description
Baked zucchini with tomatoes is a very simple yet hearty and delicious dish. It pairs wonderfully with meat dishes (especially fatty ones), since baked vegetables can make any meal feel light and airy. For cooking, I recommend using the youngest zucchini—they will stay tender and juicy when baked. This dish is also suitable for children; even one-year-olds can enjoy baked zucchini with tomatoes. One note: for children, serve a portion with less salt and no spices.
