I sauteed zucchini with 1TBS butter, garlic and added some S&P, diced parsley and lemon juice. Delicious stuff!

zucchini boats - basically stuffed zucchini. cut lengthwise, scoop out seeds and some of the flesh, chop up removed seeds and flesh, add garlic powder, parmesan cheese (if you're eating cheese), breadcrumbs; rice or your favorite grain, if you like vegetarian sausage. Mix it up and stuff back into shells. Pour some marinara in pan, put stuffed boats into sauce pour more sauce around. lightly brush with olive oil. bake.

You could probably look up stuffed peppers and tomatoes and use that same filling or most anything you want to stuff it. If you look online I dont' know if you'll actually find vegetarian version, but just leave out the meat.

This is what I was going to say - but sometimes I change it up to have a 'pizza' style mix in it for that Italian flair with little chunks of pepperoni or sausage and some mozzarella on top. Adds some cals, but if you account for them, it works!

zucchini "tots" I bake them in muffin tins-grated zucchini, eggs, parm and breadcrumbs.
I also like zucchini boats, you could do them meatless-like pizza with marinara and cheese and whatever toppings you like.
Also, I grate it into pasta and add pesto, but you could get a spiralizer and do all zucchini "noodles".

Zucchini is also great in breads and muffins! Use applesauce instead of oil. Tons of recipes online.

One of my favourite meals is

200g raw zoodles
One can of tuna or salmon
100g cherry tomatoes
50g corn
One pack of wholy guacamole or half an avocado
Squeeze of lemon and lots of salt and pepper

Soooooo good, filling, high in protein, lots of veggies, healthy fats and like 350 calories

I Like to cut up zuchinni and then marinate it in some soy sauce, a little bit of honey, garlic, ginger and crushed red pepper. Then I sautee it. Very yummy!

You have a recipe?

Zucchini Rice:
1 cup of dry rice cooked in 1 can of chicken brother
1 zucchini, shredded
4oz shredded cheddar cheese
Garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

I shred the zucchini and cheese. Toss in bowl (yes raw zucchini).
Cook rice according to directions, when done, toss on top of zucchini and cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Now just start mixing it all together. Keep mixing. Just when you think; "this doesn't look very appetizing"...Keep mixing! It will eventually start coming together. The heat from the rice cooks the zucchini. This whole pot of nommy is around 792 calories, all depending on what type of rice you use.

Baked zucchini:
slice zucchini in rounds (I sometimes brown them in a pan first. I've skipped this step and it works just as well) and toss the rounds in a 13x9 pan.
Toss in tomatoes (I've used cherry, grape, and sliced. sometimes both)
toss in a bunch of fresh basil.
you can top with mozzarella and/or Parmesan cheese.
salt and pepper everything.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 30-35 mins.
I serve this mixture over whole grain pasta.
The zucchini and tomatoes release their water making "sauce"

Slice into thin strips lengthwise (1/8") grill on he BBQ until limp. Then add a dollop of goat cheese with your favorite blend of fresh herbs. Roll up and secure with tooth pick... Delicious!

I love making zucchini noodles to replace pasta.

I'm making this zuccchini, eggplant and mushroom lasagne tomorrow night:
1 large eggplant, thickly sliced
3 medium zucchinis, thickly sliced
1 bag baby spinach
2 cups low fat ricotta
fresh basil and parsley - at least a cup
2 garlic cloves
50g parmesan
100g mushrooms, sliced
3 sheets fresh lasagne sheet
1/2 cup chicken stock

Preheat oven to 190, grease an oven proof dish.
Steam eggplant until tender. Repeat for zucchini and spinach. Combine ricotta, herbs, spinach (chopped), garlic, parmesan in a bowl. Add some pepper to taste. Spread about 1/4 ricotta mixture over the bottom of the baking dish, top with a pasta sheet, then some vegetables. Repeat layering process. Finish with a layer of pasta, some ricotta and some extra parmesan. Pour over stock. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

About 230 calories per serve - 6 serves in this recipe.
