Almost anything zucchini recipe is delicious, but grilled is my favorite.
It makes a healthy, easy and quick side dish. This time I used the grill, but you can totally use a griddle. I served them with feta cheese, mint and a nice vinaigrette.

- For the vinaigrette:
- 1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions
- Remove both ends of the zucchini. Cut lengthwise into 2 or 4 slices.

- Cook them until tender and you can see the grill marks.
