144 zucchini recipes, because let’s face it, zucchini is probably the most prolific summer vegetable in the garden. Do you have zucchini coming out your ears? Yeah, me too.

It seems most families have one or two ways they cook zucchini and that’s about it.

My sister says “I grew up with it pan fried. That’s it. I liked it but after a while it got boring. A couple years ago I tried steaming it cubed up. And grilled. Grilled is by far the best for my family. In fact, my daughter specifically asks for it cooked that way.”

At our house, Mom would make zucchini bread but we always had it baked, she’d slice it like chips, dip it in egg and crushed up soda crackers, bake it on a sheet, then top with grated cheese the last minute or two.

There are so many amazing ways to cook zucchini that taste amazing and are healthy for you… some more healthy than others. Zucchini is pretty versatile in the kitchen, did you know you can even make mock apple pie called Zapple (see our first link under zucchini desserts below). It can be savory or sweet.

And with our mega list below, you’re sure to find plenty of recipes and ways to use up that summer zucchini harvest, ya read?
