Steps:
- Toss the zucchini slices with kosher salt. Place into a colander and set over the sink to drain for 30 minutes. Pat very dry and remove as much salt as possible at the end.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and adjust the oven rack to the middle position.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil. After it has heat up for about 1 minute, add onions with Italian seasoning. Cook for about 5 minutes until soft, stirring frequently.
- Add sausage and cook while breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon for about 7-8 minutes until browned. Add garlic and cook for about a minute, stirring frequently until fragrant. Remove from the skillet and transfer to a bowl. Stir in artichoke hearts and salt & pepper.
- Add mixture to a 1.75 quart baking dish and layer zucchini rounds in between. Evenly distribute the broth on top of the dish. Cover with red sauce and cheese.
- Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes until zucchini is slightly golden around the edges and the cheese has melted. Feel free to do a low broil the last few minutes, too. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

EASY CHEESY ZUCCHINI SQUARES
This reminds me of a quiche. It can be served as the entree or as appetizers. It is a great way to use zucchini. I found this recipe printed in our local newspaper that sited the source as "The New Southern Garden Cookbook..."

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven 350 degrees. Mist the inside of a 7x11 glass baking dish with cooking spray.
- 2. Stir together the zucchini and salt in a colander and let drain 15 minutes. Press out the liquid; let drain another 15 minutes. Pick up small handfuls of zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as possible; transfer to a small bowl.
- 3. Whisk together flour and baking powder in a large bowl.
- 4. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until blended, then whisk in the oil, lemon pepper and thyme. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and mix well.
- 5. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the zucchini, onion and cheese. The batter will be very stiff. Scrape it into the prepared baking dish and press evenly into the corners.
- 6. Bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool at least 5 minutes before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.
- 7. I have reheated the leftovers the next day and it was just as good maybe even better!
