Grilled Zucchini

With all the hot weather we have been having the zucchini plants in my garden have been working overtime, producing more zucchini than I know what to do with. Family, friends and neighbors are receiving the extras, freshly picked and grown organically. If you’re on the receiving end of baskets of zucchini, I have lots of recipes which I am happy to share.

When grilling dinner, create a quick side dish by tossing some slices directly on the grill. This is a favorite of mine and goes great with my chicken kabobs.

Ingredients:
Young Zucchinis (about 6 in or 15 cm long)
Olive Oil
Garlic Pepper Seasoning

Preparation:

  • Cut zucchini lengthwise into slices about ¼ inch thick (½ cm).
  • Brush olive oil on both sides and season with garlic pepper.
  • Let sit for about a half hour.
  • Grill on medium-high heat turning after 3 minutes. Grill other side for another 2 to 3 minutes.

    Congrats to the winners 🙂

    Our farmer’s market is full of zucchini right now, and there’s nothing I like more than grilled veggies!
