About Zucchini with cheese

Zucchini with Cheese is a flavorful dish that combines the mild, tender texture of zucchini with the creamy richness of melted cheese. Originating from Mediterranean and European cuisines, it showcases zucchini’s adaptability and pairs it with comforting dairy flavors. This dish often includes baked or sautéed zucchini slices layered with cheese, herbs like basil or oregano, and sometimes garlic or olive oil for added zest. Zucchini is naturally low in calories, high in water content, and a source of vitamins like A and C, potassium, and dietary fiber, supporting hydration and digestion. While the cheese provides calcium and protein, it can contribute saturated fats and higher calorie content, depending on portion size and type used. Zucchini with Cheese strikes a balance between indulgence and nutrition, making it a versatile side dish or light entrée. Adjustments like reducing cheese or using low-fat options can make it more heart-healthy.
