Tip of the Week

Zucchini and Cheese

1-1/2 pounds zucchini
1/4 cup flour
1-1/2 tsp salt
1-1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Lightly grease 8x8x2" baking dish. Scrub zucchini, and cut crosswise in 1/4" slices. In medium bowl, combine flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon oregano and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Toss zucchini slices in seasoned flour to
coat them well.

Slowly heat oil in large, heavy skillet. Saute zucchini until golden brown, about 4 minutes on each side, drain.

Cover bottom of baking dish with zucchini, top with tomato slices. Combine sour cream, rest of salt, oregano, and pepper, and spread evenly over tomato slices. Sprinkle with grated cheese.

Bake 30-35 minutes, or until cheese is melted and zucchini is tender.
