Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices

  • 2 zucchini, cut into 1/8-inch thick slices

  • Olive oil

  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

  • 1/4 cup basil leaves, thinly sliced

  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast

Directions

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F.

  • Place the tomato slices in a colander, sprinkle with salt, and allow to sit for 45 minutes to drain.

  • Place the zucchini slices on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt, and allow to sit for 30 minutes. Rinse the zucchini and pat with a towel to dry.

  • In a skillet, heat the oil on medium high and cook the zucchini for about 4 minutes or until golden.
