Description

Filling up on large veggie sides goes a long way to help us reach our goals. More low-calorie bulk, less snaking. This recipe brings a twist to zucchini in the pan with delicate shallots and browned oat bran. 

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Rinse the zucchini and pat dry. Trim off the ends, but do not peel them. Cut into 1/8-inch slices. 

  2. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet and when the oil is hot, add the zucchini. Sauté the zucchini over high heat, shaking the pan and tossing gently. Add salt and pepper, and cook a total of 5 minutes.

  3. Add the oat bran to the pan. When the oat bran starts to brown, add the shallots and cook for another minute, tossing. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
