Meatless Monday #6


It's been a while since I last posted a Meatless Monday recipe. I'm still trying to convince my husband that we don't need to have meat for a meal to be "substantial". He LOVES veggies, but he's a farmer. He's a meat and potatoes guy...and he loves meat. He's been pretty good with the Meatless Mondays though.

One of our favourites (okay, one of my favourites) is Zucchini Pizza. I began making Zucchini Pizza a few years ago when we had some massive zucchinis from the garden. I didn't know what to do with all that zucchini that my friend, Rosie suggested one of her family's favourite zucchini recipes.

  • 1 medium zucchini sliced (not too thinly)
  • tomato paste or pizza sauce
  • Garlic Powder
  • Onion Powder
  • Italian Seasoning
  • S & P
  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)

First, turn broiler on high. Next, line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and drizzle with EVOO.

Slice zucchini. Slather each zucchini slice with about a teaspoon of tomato paste/pizza sauce and place on the cookie sheet paste side up. Sprinkle with spices. Top with cheese.

Broil for 2 minutes. The cheese should start to get golden. Simple. Easy. Delicious.

I serve these pizzas with a salad on the side.

I always have to stop and think when I see the term 'broil' used.

We use 'grill' when food is cooked by putting under the top element.

Merinz:
How interesting! Amazing how English terms differ from country to country. We use "grill" when something is cooked on a "grill" (like on a BBQ grill)!

I love the differences. I find them so fascinating! Like "lift/elevator", "boot/trunk", "lorry/truck", "jumper/sweater", "pants/underwear"...I can go on and on!
