Teriyaki Zucchini Ribbon Skewers
Teriyaki sauce coats these gorgeous zucchini skewers for a flavorful vegetarian dish that anyone will love. If you don’t have a mandoline, a vegetable peeler will work just as well to create the zucchini ribbons. Be sure not to slice them too thin or they will disintegrate; too thick and they will crack when you try to fold them.

You can use summer squash in addition to the zucchini for a pop of yellow color.

Zucchini Salad with Burrata
This zucchini salad is a taste of peak-season bliss, combining sun-kissed zucchini with the creaminess of burrata cheese. Pink peppercorns offer a sweet, fruity and slightly floral taste which pairs nicely with the citrus flavors in the dressing; however, freshly ground black pepper can be used in their place.
