Zucchini Gratin

I got the idea for these from Finding Joy in My Kitchen.  I enjoy SnoWhite's site so much!  Every time I'm on her site, my mouth waters :)  So many of her dishes look incredibly delicious!  If you haven't stopped by, make sure to check it out.  I wanted to make these little melts, but wanted a little crunch to go a along with the cheesy goodness.  So this is what I came up with.  Sno's are much more cheesier then mine and mine also sat under the broiler a little too long, so they are a bit browner then I would have liked, but I was extremely happy with the outcome.  A great new way to enjoy the zucchini we love so much!

Zucchini Gratin
Adapted from Finding Joy in My Kitchen
Printable Recipe 
Ingredients:
2-3 zucchini (depends on how big the zucchini and how many you are feeding), cut into rounds
panko bread crumbs (I used 1/4 cup)
garlic salt
pepper
shredded mozzarella cheese (depends on how cheesy you want it..I used 1/2 cup)
1 small Roma tomato, diced

Directions:
Lightly toast the panko bread crumbs in a small non-stick skillet with a little olive oil, until just starting to brown.  Season with garlic salt and pepper.

Preheat oven to 350.  Place the zucchini rounds in a single layer in a shallow baking dish sprayed with non-stick spray.  Season with salt and pepper.  Top with shredded cheese, then the tomatoes, and then the bread crumbs.  Bake for 5-8 minutes.  Once the cheese had melted and the zucchini is cooked to your liking, you can turn the broiler on to finish browning the bread crumbs.  Remove from oven and enjoy!
