Ingredients
For the zucchini salad
2 zucchinis
4 tsp. of olive oil
2 tbsp. of lemon and white balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp. of lemon juice
1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese shavings
For the croutons
1/3 of a baguette (makes about 1 ½ cup croutons)
A drizzle of olive oil
Salt and pepper
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375 F.
- On an ovenproof baking sheet, break the baguette into small rustic croutons, add a dash of olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Bake for 12 minutes or until the croutons are golden brown.
- Using a mandolin slicer, slice the zucchinis.
- In a bowl, add the slices of zucchini, the olive oil, the lemon and white balsamic vinegar, as well as the lemon juice. Mix well. I recommend using your hands to mix the salad, to make sure that each slice is soaked with the vinaigrette.
