Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Oil a round baking dish with bit of olive oil.
2. In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, garlic and Italian seasoning. Place zucchini and tomatoes in a large mixing bowl. Pour olive oil mixture over and gently toss to evenly coat.
3. Arrange zucchini and tomatoes in the prepared baking dish, forming a spiral into an even layer. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle Parmesan over the top.
4. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 – 25 minutes until veggies are tender and Parmesan is golden brown. Garnish with parsley if desired and serve warm. Enjoy!
