Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb zucchini cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • Kosher salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp Herbes de Provence
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 6 oz cream cheese at room temp
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  • Place the sliced zucchini in a colander over a bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Allow to sit for 15 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet and sauté the mushrooms for 6-8 minutes.
  • Season with salt, pepper and seasonings. Add in the broth and bring to a bubble. Stir in the cream cheese and mix until smooth, then remove from heat.
  • Use paper towels to absorb the excess moisture from the zucchini slices, then add them to the skillet and into the mushroom sauce.
  • Sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until bubbly and the top is golden.

Notes

  • Storing in the refrigerator: Place in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days in the fridge.
  • To reheat: Cook in oven at 350 degrees until warm or pop individual servings in the microwave for about 1 minute.
