For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese during the last few minutes of roasting.
Don't overcrowd the pan, or the zucchini will steam instead of roast. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs, such as thyme or oregano.
A little drizzle of balsamic glaze after roasting would also be delicious!
