25 Zucchini Recipes

A collection of the best zucchini and summer squash recipes that are easy to make!

Zucchini, aka courgette, a summer squash, has to be one of my favourite summer vegetables (technically a fruit) and that’s good because when you grow it you get a ton of it! Although it’s nice and easy to steam or saute some zucchini and serve it as a side dish you can do so much more with it! Zucchini is really versatile and it can be used in a wide variety of dishes from pastas, to salads, soups, sauces, fritters, pies, casseroles and the list goes on! It can even be used in sweet dishes like cakes, muffins, breads, etc. I always love to experiment and try new ways of using zucchini and with zucchini season here I thought that I would share some of my current favourite recipes!

    I love zucchini and use it for so many recipes but I have to admit you've got me beat. All your recipes sounds and look so sensational I'm not sure which one to try first. Which is your favorite of the bunch?

    Vicki Bensinger: That is a difficult question! I would have to say either the salsa or the carbonara right now.

    Thanks for this – couldn't be better timing considering the mountain of zucchini that I purchased at the farmers' market this week.

    I love zucchini. I had a side dish of broiled sliced zucchini and sliced red potatoes with seasoning sprinkled on it. It was so good that I decided to see what recipes Kevin Lynch had that included zucchini. Now, I am waiting for the Saturday when the Farmers Market is open so that I can buy fresh zucchinis.
