Cheesy Summer Squash with Hot Honey

1. Place a large rimmed baking sheet on upper-third oven rack; preheat to 450°F.

2. Combine sliced squash, 2 tablespoons oil, 1½ teaspoons onion powder, 1 teaspoon oregano and ½ teaspoon pepper in a large bowl; toss well to coat. Carefully transfer to the preheated baking sheet; spread in an even layer. Roast until starting to become tender-crisp, about 3 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, combine ½ cup mozzarella, ½ cup feta, the grated garlic, 1 teaspoon lemon zest and the remaining ½ teaspoon oregano in a small bowl.

4. Remove squash from oven; carefully pat the slices dry with paper towels. Flip the squash slices; top evenly with the cheese mixture.

5. Increase oven temperature to broil. Broil the squash until the cheese mixture is browned and melted, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with ⅛ teaspoon salt and drizzle with 1 tablespoon hot honey. Garnish with torn basil, if desired.
