    A great way to use up some zucchini is to throw in some chopped pieces at the very end of cooking pasta (like when 2-3 minutes are left). Cover the whole thing with sauce and enjoy.

    2 pounds zucchini, trimmed and cut into 1-inch chunks

    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

    2 tablespoons prepared pesto

    Salt to taste

    Freshly ground pepper to taste

    How to prepare:

    Place a baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

    Toss zucchini with oil in a large bowl. Spread the zucchini on the preheated baking sheet in a single layer. Roast until beginning to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn the zucchini and continue roasting until just tender, 7 to 9 minutes more. Return the zucchini to the bowl. Add pesto, salt and pepper; toss to coat.

    If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aNQiN

    The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

  • Balsamic vinaigrette dressing is a wonderful marinade for zucchini!

    Let it marinate about five to ten mins then place on grill. Cook until brown on both sides (about four mins both sides).

    It's a favorite at my house!

    Good luck!
