Just a few minutes under the broiler gives these ricotta-and-basil-filled nests a light golden top.

Combine ricotta, Parmesan, basil, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl.

Stop when you reach the seeds.

Spiralized Zucchini & Summer Squash Casserole

You should have about 6 cups of “noodles.”

Place them on a cutting board and shape into an even 10-inch square.

Cut the square into quarters.

Transfer each “nest” to a 9-by-13-inch broiler-safe pan (or similar size 3-quart baking dish).

Arrange the zucchini nests in an alternating pattern with the summer squash.

Drizzle the nests with oil and season with salt and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Make a well in the center of each and spoon in about 2 tablespoons filling.

Broil the nests until browned in spots, 6 to 8 minutes.
