Roasted

To prepare a delicious side dish, cut zucchini and yellow squash into cubes or slices and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Top with parmesan cheese and roast in the oven until tender and caramelized.

Zoodles

You can pair spiralized zucchini and squash with various red and white cream sauces to create a scrumptious dish.

Stuffed

You can prepare a delicious meal by hollowing out zucchini or yellow squash and filling them with rice or cauliflower rice, Italian sausage, cheese, herbs, and spices. Bake them until the filling is cooked and the vegetables are tender.

Pickled

Pickling is a great way to enhance the flavor of many vegetables. For instance, pickle sliced zucchini and yellow squash in vinegar brine with herbs. This will create crunchy and tangy pickles that can be enjoyed as a snack or added to sandwiches.

Salads

Thinly sliced or spiralized zucchini and yellow squash can be used to create a refreshing salad. Roasted tomato and feta can be added to the mix to create a delightful medley of textures and flavors, with their mild tastes blending perfectly.

Soups

Zucchini and squash can be added to soups and stews to enhance flavor and add a bit of texture. You should try this Cheesy Lasagna Soup. It uses zucchini instead of pasta, and you won’t notice the difference because it tastes that good!

Grilling lengthwise strips or rounds of zucchini and yellow squash can give them a delicious smoky flavor and beautiful char marks. Brush them with olive oil, sprinkle seasoning, and grill until tender.

Fritters

You can combine grated zucchini and yellow squash with breadcrumbs or pork rind crumbs, eggs, herbs, and seasonings to make fritters or patties. Pan-fry them until they turn golden brown, and enjoy them as a side dish or snack.
