5 Seriously Good Zucchini Recipes!

Published 8 days agoΒ β€’Β 1 min read

Hi there, Reader

Zucchini really is the summer MVP. And good news: there is no shortage of creative (and delicious) ways to put it to use. Here are some of my most popular zucchini recipes!

Vegan Zucchini Bread

One-bowl Vegan Zucchini Bread! It's easy, fluffy, perfectly spiced, and loaded with shredded zucchini. You can use mix-ins of choice like nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips, and unlike most recipes, you don't need to squeeze/blot the zucchini.

Air Fryer Zucchini

A fast, low-maintenance, and highly delicious side. Tossed in seasonings, then air fried, it's golden, light, a little crispy-crunchy, and oh so good! Oven instructions are also included if you don't have an air fryer.

Saucy Skillet Tofu & Zucchini

Delicious pan-fried tofu and zucchini smothered in a tangy, buttery, lemony, herby sauce. One pan, quick to make, and so good with rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes for dinner!

Easy Ratatouille

One pot, super easy and ready in under 30 minutes. Love this with some crusty bread or rice!

Crispy Baked Zucchini Slices

Seasoned, coated in panko crumbs, and held tightly together with melty vegan cheese, they are the perfect combo of tender, sweet, crispy, crunchy, chewy, and cheesy. I love these served on top of something creamy like my simple orzo risotto!

Vegan Zucchini Muffins

Fluffy, moist, and hearty with perfectly domed muffin tops, and unlike most recipes, you don't need to waste any time squeezing the liquid out of the zucchini!

Miso Zucchini Noodles

Perfect for hot days, as this is a completely raw dish! Ready in under 15 minutes, too!

Baked Vegan Orzo

An easy, throw-it-all-in, one-pot wonder featuring tender orzo, summer veggies, and lots of melty cheese!
