Sautéed Zucchini Coins

Zucchini

Sautéed Zucchini Coins ~Instead of breaded and fried, these sautéed zucchini coins are lightly sauteed and tossed with herbs. This reduced-fat version also features olive oil, which is mainly monounsaturated fat. Zucchini is a great side for almost any meal. It is great as part of a veggie meal too! My family loves zucchini straight from the garden. We never get tired of finding ways to incorporate zucchini in our meals.

If you need some more sides for your meal try these tried and true recipes! Green Bean Casserole, Garlic Vegetable Sautee, Sauteed Zucchini Coins, or these Cheddar Smashed Potatoes like Grandma used to make.

    Just bought zucchini and squash at the grocery today. This looks like my kind of new year’s recipe. Delicious. Thank you for sharing. I have fixed something similar with ‘zoodles’ and onions. Glad to have a new recipe to try.

      Zoodles and onions would make them an entire meal! Even better. One recipe is all it would take. Thanks Leslie. I am going to have to try that. Have a wonderful week.

    I love the sound of this recipe and the ingredients. I don’t really like olive oil and I always looking for ways to include it in recipes without tasting it too much. This should be perfect. The Blogger’s Pit Stop will feature your awesome recipe.
