This is such a great way to use up summer zucchini, and worth every delicious bite. Here, we used our new Ninja Foodi XL Pro Air Fryer Oven. I did not use the air fry basket for this, instead used the roasting pan on air fry 400 degrees. A total of 12 minutes, was needed to cook these zucchini rounds which gave a flavorful, eldente perfect texture.
INGREDIENTS:
1 large zucchini yellow or green, cut into 1/4 inch rounds
a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
fresh cracked pepper
pizza sauce
1 tsp. pizza seasoning blend - I used the season blend for homemade pizza
Parmesan cheese
Asiago cheese
fresh chopped basil
finely diced tomato - seeds removed
Add 1/4 inch slices of zucchini to a bowl with a good drizzle of EVOO, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, and pizza season blend (I used this one) and some fresh cracked pepper.
Toss to coat well. Lay zucchini rounds on the roaster pan, Air Fry on 3rd level of ninja for 4 minutes. Remove from oven, and to the zucchini rounds add a small spoonful of pizza sauce, fresh basil, asiago cheese, topping with mini diced tomatoes. Continue to cook for 8 more minutes. Serve hot as a side to any main dish, or serve as an appetizer.
