Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs medium yellow summer squash
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and dry the squash thoroughly.
  2. Slice each squash in half lengthwise and arrange them cut-side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Spoon a generous layer of grated Parmesan onto the flesh of each squash half, pressing the cheese gently into the vegetable with your fingertips.
  4. Bake for 12–15 minutes. For a more intense finish, toggle the broiler for the final 2 minutes until the cheese is a deep mahogany-gold and the squash is tender.
