In the height of summer, vegetables abound in the garden and none is more productive than zucchini. Many gardeners find keeping up with all of the zucchini, their plants produce to be a challenge. Summer menus are often filled with stir-fried zucchini, zucchini soup, and stuffed zucchini and of course zucchini bread.
One great way to enjoy this vegetable is by grilling it. Grilled zucchini is incredibly easy to prepare and can be eaten all by itself, added to salads or sandwiches and cut up and added to vegetable kebobs. This grilled zucchini recipe is incredibly simple and quick to prepare - and it is a good way to use up some of that zucchini that is rapidly filling up your kitchen. Hot from the grill, zucchini might disappear more quickly than you think.
