Baked Parmesan Squash is one of the easiest and most delicious side dishes you can make. My kids will eat this squash as quick as I can bake it and I love that it is a bit healthier than deep fried.

Tips for Baking Squash:

A mandoline will keep your slices even and allow them to bake evenly. 

Use parchment paper or foil to keep the squash and cheese from sticking to the sheet pan and it makes for super easy cleanup. 

Thin sliced squash will bake quickly, you can bake it a little longer for crisp slices, just watch it carefully so the cheese doesn’t burn.
