WHAT’S COOKING: Zucchini with Zip
It’s that time of year – when zucchini is so bountiful that it leaves you wondering what to do with it all. These two recipes take the ubiquitous summer vegetable in new directions – one super simple (works on the grill too) and the other sophisticated enough to impress guests. Both make a great side for grilled meat or addition to a vegetarian meal.
Get the recipes.
