BROILED ZUCCHINI

3-4 zucchini or more!

Your favorite season salt or spices to season zucchini

Finely grated cheese, enough to cover zucchini (I used four cheese Mexican blend, a blend of low-fat cheeses)

Preheat broiler and put rack into middle position or about 4 inches away from broiler. Wash zucchini and cut off ends. Cut into slices about 3/8 inches wide. It's important that all zucchini slices are same width so they can cook evenly.

Spray a large round or rectangular baking sheet with non-stick spray. Cover baking sheet completely with zucchini rounds, putting them as close together as possible. Sprinkle each zucchini piece with Spike Seasoning or whatever seasoning salt or spices you're using.

Completely cover top of zucchini with grated cheese. Broil until cheese is browned and zucchini is barely tender, about 5-7 minutes. Serve immediately. Simple!
