We are so excited that football season is here! We are big football fans and I love attending football games and tailgate parties. This weekend we attended a Rams Football game and it was great fun to be at the stadium.

While we did not tailgate this weekend, we love tailgating too. Our best tailgate recipes include our football rice treats and this hot pizza dip.

Since football season is beginning, I wanted to share my simple Parmesan Zucchini Stacks appetizer tailgating recipe with you today. This appetizer is so easy to make and it is made of vegetables so if you are looking for a healthier tailgating recipe, this is it. I originally posted it a couple of years ago and thought it deserved to be brought back.

Red potatoes and zucchini are dipped in a lovely olive oil dressing with herbs and seasonings. Then the vegetables are stacked and baked to perfection.

These are so simple to make. Just slice your red potatoes and zucchini.

After slicing vegetables, you will brush with the olive oil dressing.

Then simply bake and stack and top with parmesan.

Delightfully tasting and you can feel good that they are made with vegetables.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
