Ingredients

  • 3 medium yellow squash cut in half lengthwise and then into 1-inch chunks
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon crushed rosemary
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425° F. Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Make sure the parchment paper is rated for that high a temperature. If not, go without it.
  • Toss the yellow squash with olive oil. Sprinkle on the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, marjoram, thyme, and rosemary. Toss again.
  • Spread the chunks in a single layer on a parchment-covered baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the dried cherry tomatoes with basil. Add the cherry tomatoes to the baking sheet with the yellow squash. Roast for another 10-15 minutes or until fork-tender.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and return the baking sheet to the oven for 2-3 minutes.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. 
  • Reheat in the microwave at 50% power for short increments until warm.
