Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400F and make sure the rack is in the middle.
- Slice the zucchini, onions, and squash into thin, uniform slices. Half the cherry or grape tomatoes.
- Place all of the vegetables in a medium-sized bowl and combine them with olive oil, sea salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- After seasoning, spread your vegetables on a roasting pan in a single layer. If you are concerned they may stick to the pan, apply a light coating of oil, or use parchment paper.
- Roast your vegetables in the oven.
- After 20 mins, remove the pan from the oven and flip the vegetables on the pan. Add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar (optional but super tasty!) and the parmesan cheese.
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!

ITALIAN ZUCCHINI AND SQUASH
I got on a kick of finding new recipes for zucchini and squash this summer. My husband's and my favorite is the simplest dish so far. It takes very little prep time, a little patience while your kitchen becomes filled with this delicious aroma, and amazement at how simple this is. It was a very easy way to impress my husband for a nice romantic meal.

ITALIAN ZUCCHINI SQUASH
This is so easy, and so good. It is almost fat-free, except for the cheese. There is no oil--just a tad of water for steaming the veggies. I don't measure the veggies. I just put what I have, but because I must give measurements, this is about what I would use.

ITALIAN-STYLE STUFFED ZUCCHINI SQUASH (CROCK POT)
I love summer squash with tomato sauce and Italian herbs, and this healthy vegetarian/vegan dish is so simple to prepare, very filling and delicious. It comes from vegetarian.about.com, and I didn't change too much about it. Originally it called for fresh herbs, but I really don't like using fresh herbs in the crock pot, so I used dried instead, and then just threw a few fresh leaves on top before serving. The toasted pine nuts add a lot to this - I don't recommend omitting them. I was worried about the squash falling apart since I had to leave it in the crock pot well past the suggested cooking time - 9 hours - so I wrapped the zucchini halves in foil before putting them in. It worked great - the squash was very soft, but still together, and the rice was not overcooked at all. The original recipe says it serves four, but I think as a main course it is perfect for two. Putting a little dairy or soy mozzarella or Parmesan on top before serving is nice. This just needs a green salad and maybe some bread to complete the meal. The filling would also probably be great inside bell peppers.
