Hi reader!
Zucchini is one of those summer vegetables that’s great to have on hand, but it can pile up fast if you don’t have a plan. The good news is that it works in so many different recipes - breakfast, dinner, muffins, meal prep bowls, and even freezer-friendly meals.
So today I’m sharing a few zucchini recipes to make now, plus more easy summer recipes to keep on your menu while all this fresh produce is in season.

Easy Ways to Use Zucchini This Week
If you still have zucchini left after making those recipes, here are a few more simple ways to use it:
- Spiralize it into zucchini noodles and serve with marinara, pesto, meatballs, or grilled chicken.
- Shred it and add it to muffins, baked oatmeal, meatloaf, or egg cups.
- Slice it and roast or grill it with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- Add it to pasta dishes, rice bowls, quinoa bowls, or skillet dinners.
- Chop it up and store it in the fridge so it’s ready to toss into meals during the week.
Zucchini is one of those vegetables that can quietly make a meal a little healthier without making dinner more complicated.
My Favorite Tools for Zucchini Prep
If you’re dealing with a lot of zucchini this summer, these are the two tools I’d keep nearby.
Spiralizer. A spiralizer is the easiest way to turn zucchini into noodles. I love using zucchini noodles with marinara, pesto, meatballs, shredded chicken, or grilled vegetables. Get this top-rated one on Amazon.
