Instructions
Cut the ends off of each zucchini and slice it long way down the middle. Then slice each zucchini log into half circles about ½ inch wide / thick.
4 pounds Zucchini
Place the zucchini semi-circles in a large zip top bag. Sprinkle in half of the salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Seal the bag, and shake it to coat the zucchini. Sprinkle in the remaining half of the seasonings. Seal the bag, and shake it again.
Drizzle in the oil, seal, and shake it again until the zucchini rounds are completely coated.
2 tablespoons Avocado Oil or Olive Oil
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. If you are making the full amount listed, line 2 rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil. Split the zucchini between the 2 pans.
Roast at 400 degrees F for 20 minutes. Remove and turn over the zucchini. Return to the oven for another 10 minutes, until fork tender.
Serve warm.
