Preheat oven to 450°F. Position a rack in the center of the oven.
Combine zucchini, yellow squash, carrot, onion, shallot, orange juice, orange zest, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl.
Cut four pieces of parchment paper 24×16-inches. Fold each piece of parchment paper in a half. Using scissors, cut each folded piece of paper into a heart shape. Place an opened parchment heart on your work surface with the fold running vertically. Brush one side of the heart lightly with oil.

Place packages on baking sheet, lightly brush the top of each package with oil; bake until the paper is puffed and brown, about 15 minutes.
Place heart shaped package on plate. Cut slashed in the parchment at the table to release the aromatic steam.
