Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450 F.

Step 2

Halve the baby zucchini and summer squash lengthwise, and halve or quarter the pattypan squash, depending on size. You want all of the pieces to have approximately the same thickness, probably about 1/2 to 3/4 inch wide. Place them in a large bowl.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon zest and juice, honey, and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the squash and use your hands to toss until all of the squash is well coated with the dressing.

Step 4

Spread the squash out on a rimmed sheet pan, preferably lined with parchment. Roast for about 10 to 15 minutes, until they become tender and browned in spots. Use a spatula to transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 5

Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature. Crumble the blue cheese over before serving if desired.
