Zucchini Sliders
Our simple combination of perfectly seasoned grass-fed ground beef, and lightly charred zucchini with just a touch of melty cheese is sure to hit the spot!
It won’t be long before our gardens and farmers’ markets are overflowing with large, fresh zucchini!
Zucchini are readily available year-round thanks to greenhouse growing, but they get their own curtain call and beautiful performance, mid-summer through fall, throughout North America.
They’re usually quite inexpensive, in fact, growing up in Utah it was pretty normal to find a big bag of zucchini sitting on our porch as a gift from a neighbor who just couldn’t use them fast enough!
➡️ Did you know:
Zucchini has quite an impressive nutritional scoreboard – from high levels of potassium, B-vitamins, dietary fiber, and antioxidants, all of which offer huge benefits to our overall health.
It’s shown that eating zucchini regularly in place of processed carbohydrates (such as bread) can even help regulate our blood sugar levels, which can greatly benefit diabetics.
Eating zucchini several times per week can help us with our weight loss goals.
Zucchini is extremely low in calories but gives us the feeling of being full. Therefore, it is a great way to satisfy our appetites without grabbing lots of empty calories or carbs.
