Pastry with zucchini is a savory treat often inspired by Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, where fresh produce and light flavors are emphasized. Typically made with flaky puff pastry or phyllo dough, it is filled with a mix of grated zucchini, eggs, cheese (like feta or ricotta), and herbs such as dill or parsley. Some variations may include garlic or onions for added flavor. Zucchini’s high water content and low calorie profile make it a nutritious filling, providing vitamins A and C, potassium, and dietary fiber. However, the healthiness of this dish depends on preparation—while the vegetables and herbs are wholesome, the use of buttery pastry and rich cheeses adds saturated fat and calories. A great option for light meals or snacks, it can be enjoyed in moderation or made healthier by using whole-grain or reduced-fat ingredients. This dish offers a delightful balance of indulgence and vegetable-forward goodness.
