Low Carb Scalloped Zucchini

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 350F.
2. 2
   Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet or oven-proof pan, and sauté the zucchini. Stir frequently, while cooking, seasoning the zucchini with salt and pepper as you move them around the skillet.
3. 3
   As the vegetables cook, make the cheese sauce by adding the cream cheese, heavy cream and water to a medium saucepan. Cook over a low heat until the cheese has melted.
4. 4
   Add the shredded cheddar, a quarter cup at a time, stirring until it has melted before adding more.
5. 5
   Drain the zucchini of any excess liquid, then pour the cheese sauce over the zucchini, then finish with the grated Parmesan.
6. 6
   Roast until the top is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Grind some black pepper over the top and serve.
