​ Super Simple Zucchini Salad

18 Aug 2021 by Ted Escobedo   2 min read
This zucchini salad recipe is the epitome of “simple, beautiful food.” It’s so pretty and flavorful, thanks to these simple ingredients:
  • Zucchini – When you make this recipe, steer clear of large zucchini. They tend to be seedy and watery, while smaller zucchinis are tender and delicate. Use a sharp knife, vegetable peeler, or mandolin to slice them vertically into long, thin strips. For a brighter variation, use a mix of shaved zucchini and yellow squash.
  • Pine nuts –Toast them before adding them to the salad to bring out their rich, nutty flavor.
  • Fresh herbs – Fresh basil , chives and mint leaves are best. Parsley or tarragon would be great here too.
  • Parmesan cheese – For rich flavor. Crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese would also be delicious.
  • Lemon vinaigrette – Drizzle it over the zucchini ribbons for bright, zesty flavor. Regular lemon juice will work just as well.
