    Hi JeffnJulie, Thanks for your feedback. I think some different companies make different blends of Italian Herbs, I'll amend the recipe to reduce the quantities (of herbs & parmesan) according to preference tmrc_emoticons.)

    Happy cooking!

    We quite liked this zucchini slice particularly with the quinoa.  I thought the flavour of the parmesan and the Italian herbs was a bit too strong for the zucchini so I'll make again with a mixture of cheeses and with reduced mixed herbs.  Thank you for the recipe.

    The quinoa and zucchini combination was really yummy, the kids devouered it. I didnt have parmasan so I just used regular tasty cheese. The only thing I would do differently next time is probably add an egg as it was a bit crumbly but that was it.
