tasty things to do with zucchini?

Go on to kraftfoods.com or allrecipes.com (or any recipe site), and search for recipes by ingredients. I make a zucchini crust pizza casserole, even my husband likes! Another one I like is a zucchini-corn saute (zuc, corn, diced tomatoes, some seasoning & cheese on top). Pumpkin zucchini bread, pineapple zucchini bread, the list goes on...

It taste really good in spaghetti and similar dishes.

These are really good:

It taste good in eggs, too.

Zucchini is very versatile. You're only limited by your imagination with it, really.

My husband loved the Cauliflower pizza so I wonder if he would like this just as well....hmmm!
I was just curious how many calories did you come up w/ on that recipe?

I like to layer slices of zucchini with onion and tomatoes and a little bit of tomato sauce, then top with mozzarella and bake it until the veggies are soft and cheese is melted. Yummy!

I grate it with carrot and onion add some mayo anddash of balsamic vinegar stir in a few nuts and you have a coleslaw in minutes.

I slice mine thinly with onion, diced green or red pepper whatever I have sauté in olive oil with Italian seasoning blend, and lots of garlic. I then add a can of rotel tomatoes with chilies not drained and then add about 1/3 cup of rice. When rice is cooked and gets thicker, I add a little Parmesan at the end. Yummy, gooy, Nom Nom .. If more liquid is needed just add a little beef broth or water....

OP- I also enjoy zucchini and was really craving pizza one night, but didn't want to splurge all those calories. I googled how to make a pizza crust low calorie and I found zucchini pizza crust. It's super easy to make.

I took 3 zucchini (doesn't matter the size) for my first trial run with it and grated it down until it looked like shredded cheese. Leave the skin on. Once I had that done, I put it in a bowl and had another bowl beside it. Take small handfuls and wring out the excess water. Use the empty bowl to put the zucchini that you have de-waterized (hehe) into. Once you have all of the zucchini free of as much excess water as humanly possible, take an egg (I used 1-2 large ones) and mix it with the zucchini. This binds it together very well. I even tried using egg beaters instead, but it didn't bind for me as well as it did with the entire real egg.

After you do that, take your baking pan, spray with cooking spray and then put your zucchini on the pan. Be sure to spread it evenly so it cooks evenly. I made mine thin the first time. The thicker it is, the longer it takes to cook. I cooked mine for about 15-20 min on 400 degrees. I like my pizza really crunchy, but you can judge for how you like it.

Once that has cooked, pull it out of the oven. You now have a "crust" for your pizza. I added marinara, low fat shredded mozzarella and turkey pepperoni and popped it back into the oven until the cheese was melted and golden.


My son doesn't like zucchini and gobbled this up. It's become a new regular as part of our dinner rotation. You can add whatever you would like onto it, because you are creating your own pizza.

I just quickly googled a link for you or anyone else reading this:

We eat a lot of zucchini, especially in the summertime when my family's garden produces more of it than we can use!
I've pinned a lot of zucchini recipes to this board, made quite a few of them too. All super yummy. Hope you find a few you might like!

My father would cut it round slices and put seasoning on it or non and grill it and call it Pinwheels. my little cousins would come over to swim and request pinwheels for a snack and if you' ever had a garden like we did we always had tons.

One of my fav things to make with zucchini is "po boy crabcakes"...Look up a recipe and bake instead of frying
