Six zucchini plants.
For anyone whose grown squash, one plant of any squash is plenty for a family.
Just look at how happy I look holding my oversized zucchini next to my overgrown plants. I was stressed. I was harvesting 3-4 zucchini per day and my family and friends couldn’t eat it fast enough. But I was so proud of growing all that zucchini that I tried to eat as much of it as I could.
So I did, and I’ve never looked at zucchini the same since. In all honesty zucchini is pretty tough for me to eat sometimes, but I still love growing it. Fortunately I’ve learned a few different ways to cook zucchini that make it absolutely delicious and enjoyable. (even for someone like me!) I hope you enjoy this delicious grilled zucchini recipe!
Ingredients
- 2 Medium Zucchini
- 1 tsp Dijon Mustard
- 2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 tsp White Wine Vinegar
- 1 tsp Lemon Juice
- 1/4 tsp Crushed Black Pepper
- 1 Tbsp Parsley, Finely Chopped
Directions:
1. Preheat grill at medium heat. Cut ends off zucchini and then cut zucchini in half to create two shorter pieces to work with.
2. Cut zucchini into 1/4-1/2 inch slices. Use a mandolin if you have one. If you don’t, you may have to cut these slices thicker.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together dijon, EVOO, vinegar, lemon juice, and black pepper.
4. Coat zucchini with mixture. Place zucchini on grill and let cook on one side for about 5 minutes or until sear marks are clear. Flip slices to other side and continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes.
5. Once zucchini are done, remove from heat and top with parsley.
