Zucchini Bites
2 tablespoons vegan parmesan or nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon parsley
salt, to taste
pinch garlic powder
1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise (I love Vegenaise!)
2 zucchini, sliced 1/4" to 1/2"
1. Preheat toaster oven or regular oven to broil. In a small bowl, mix together vegan parmesan, parsley, salt, and garlic powder.
2. Spread a tiny bit of vegan mayo on one side of a zucchini round, and dip the side with the mayo into the bowl of parmesan mix so that the parmesan sticks the the mayo.
3. Place the zucchini parmesan side up on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining zucchini. Stick pan in the oven until the tops look golden, about 10 minutes.
You can cook these so they are still a little firm like finger food, or if they get a bit too cooked, you can eat them as a side with a fork. Yum!
Source of recipe: My mother used to make these but they were not vegan. I used to love these little bites of yummy zukes and found that it was super easy to veganize.
SO HOW'D IT GO?
These were pretty good - I wish I had cut them a little thicker so they would have stayed firmer, but this was after a few drinks, so I'm not sure if I was really paying attention - and I threw them in the oven instead of the broiler....but it's a really quick way to make a snack - I'll probably do it again...
Sounds great.. how long did you cook them to keep them firm?
