A light and fresh baked vegetable dish that's the perfect accompaniment to any weeknight summer meal. In less than 30 minutes, you can have a garlicky, cheesy, and satisfying dish that's actually very healthy (vegetarian and gluten-free), your family won't even know what happened!
Wow! When did Monday get here? I spent the weekend getting a long list of do-to's down to a smaller long list of to-do's. It kinda took up the whole weekend and then Monday decided to show up.
With a major cheat meal day that happened this weekend, I needed to level my foodie playing field with a meal with a little lot more on the healthier side.
I went with some yummy chicken breasts and this Summer Tomato + Zucchini Bake. It was perfect for a cheesy, garlicky side that was satisfying to the bellies but also hella healthy for those counting their 'man carbs' {ahem...Hubby}.
Summer Tomato + Zucchini Bake
Ingredients
- 2 zucchinis, chopped
- 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
- ½ red or sweet onion, chopped or sliced
- ¼ cup shredded radishes, optional for a little extra crunch!
- ½ cup fresh parmesan cheese, shredded
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 Tablespoons chopped or shredded basil leaves, plus more for optional garnish
- 5 Tablespoons olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350*F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients together until all vegetables are evenly coated in the dressing.
- Place the veggie mix in a 9 x 13 baking dish and bake uncovered for 25 minutes for crunchier veggies and 30 minutes for more tender vegetables. Enjoy!

This looks amazing! I always cheat on weekends too -- and especially when I'm traveling (like I am now) -- but this looks like a great dish to try when I get back home! 🙂

I think I'm heading to my garden now to pick the basil, zucchini, and tomatoes to make this! It looks amazingly delicious and healthy!
