If you’ve ever planted a big garden, you know what it’s like when a successful plant just keeps growing and growing. You get all of this amazing produce (and you’re so grateful), but eventually finding ideas for using it becomes annoying!
My sister’s favorite quote is “From limitations comes creativity,” but during zucchini season, I say “From excess comes creativity.” I’ve experimented with a ton of different ways to use zucchini so you can have your variety AND eat all the zucchini!
Almost every single recipe on this list is low-carb and keto friendly. All are gluten-free, too! Tons of them are perfect for meal prepping (like these Cheddar Zucchini Cornbread Muffins or these Keto Zucchini Tortillas).
Whether you’re looking for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or all of the above, this list has something for you!
