Roast zucchini is a simple, flavorful dish made by baking or broiling sliced zucchini with olive oil, herbs, and spices until tender and slightly caramelized. Hailing from Mediterranean cuisine, this versatile vegetable pairs beautifully with garlic, oregano, or parmesan cheese. Low in calories and rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and antioxidants, zucchini supports heart health, digestion, and immune function. Olive oil adds healthy fats while creating a tender texture and enhancing flavor, though moderation is key to keep calorie content in check. Roast zucchini is naturally gluten-free and can be tailored to plant-based diets, making it a go-to option for those seeking a light yet nutrient-dense side dish.
