GRILLED ZUCCHINI PIZZA BITES
I don't know anyone who can say no to a mini pizza. Here, instead of pizza dough, thinly sliced zucchini rounds provide a healthy base for the marinara sauce and mozzarella. I top each with a small round of pepperoni, which is easily omitted for a lighter, vegetarian snack. These disappear fast, so double the recipe if your crew is extra hungry!

Steps:
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, adjust an oven rack to the upper-middle position, and preheat the broiler to high.
- Trim the ends from the zucchini and slice each zucchini crosswise into 1/2- to 3/4-inch rounds (you should get about 24 rounds). Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and cook until browned on one side (in batches, if needed), 4 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer the zucchini to the baking sheet, browned side up. Top each zucchini round with 1/2 teaspoon of the marinara sauce, a pepperoni slice (if using), and a piece of mozzarella. Broil the zucchini until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes (watch the pizza bites closely, as broiler intensities vary).
- Remove the zucchini from the oven and transfer to a platter. Sprinkle with the salt and serve warm.

Tips:
- Select firm and tender zucchini: Choose zucchini that are firm to the touch and have a deep green color. Avoid zucchini that are soft or have blemishes.
- Slice zucchini evenly: Cut the zucchini into uniform slices so that they cook evenly. About 1/4-inch thick is a good size.
- Marinate the zucchini: Marinating the zucchini in olive oil and garlic not only adds flavor but also helps to prevent them from sticking to the grill.
- Grill the zucchini over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning. Cook the zucchini for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
- Serve immediately: Grilled zucchini is best served hot off the grill. You can sprinkle them with additional herbs, cheese, or lemon zest before serving.
