As summer’s bounty brings us an abundance of vegetables, the humble yet delicious zucchini always steals the show! Here you will find all of the best zucchini recipes, from sweet to savory. There is a zucchini recipe for every occasion!
Tis the season for all things zucchini!
I know it’s always a joke about how abundant zucchini plants are. But I love it.
And I never get sick of zucchini.
So whether you have your own over-producing plant, if you have neighbors offering them up, or even if you are picking them up at the farmer’s market or grocery store because you love them, here you will find all of my favorite zucchini recipes!
Zucchini Muffins
These Zucchini Muffins are a classic favorite. This is our go to muffin recipe in the late summer. They are sweet and delicious!
Stuffed Zucchini Boats
I could eat these zucchini boats weekly. They are simple, yet filled with flavor. And they are also so filling!
Chocolate Zucchini Muffins
Because chocolate and zucchini for breakfast is always a good idea!
Zucchini Fries
These are perfect as an appetizer, as a side dish, or for an afternoon snack.
Zucchini Parmesan
This is the zucchini version of eggplant parmesan. It’s a vegetarian meal that is filling and delicious!
Zucchini Salad with Tomatoes
This salad screams garden bounty! This is the perfect side dish for any summer meal.
Zucchini Cobbler Bars
Serve these bars up for dessert and your guests will think they are eating apple bars! The zucchini fools people in this dessert all the time.
Zucchini Bread
You can’t forget the classic zucchini bread! Make a loaf of this bread and watch it disappear because everyone loves it so much!
Chocolate Wave Zucchini Bread
Speaking of zucchini bread, this half chocolate, half plain version is my very favorite. I’ve been making this recipe since I first moved away from home!
Zucchini Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
This is one of those recipes that I have to make every summer. It is the perfect dessert for a Sunday night.
Zucchini Tart with Ricotta and Bacon
This zucchini tart just tastes like summer! It’s a simple recipe, perfect for a light dinner.
Glazed Lemon Poppy Seed Zucchini Bread
Can you have too many variations of zucchini bread? I don’t think so! And this one uses one of my favorite flavors – lemon!
Sheet Pan Shrimp and Vegetables
This is the perfect summer dinner, filled with lots of summer veggies.
Minestrone
I love this recipe because it packs in all the veggies.
Vegetable and Sausage Stuffed Peppers
This is another great end of summer meal, because you can pack in all of the garden veggies that you have on hand.
Turkey Goulash
This is a healthier version of a traditional comfort food. I love the addition of vegetables – especially that zucchini!
Yellow Squash and Zucchini Soup
This soup is simple, yet a perfect way to use up not one, but two kinds of summer squash.
Zucchini Sausage Casserole
This may not look like much, but it sure does pack a punch of flavor!
Chicken, Black Bean, and Zucchini Enchiladas
Not only is the filling of these enchiladas incredible, but the green chile sauce over the top is to die for.
Veggie Quesadilla
This is the perfect quesadilla for lunch or for a light dinner. I love all of the roasted vegetables – especially the zucchini!
