Photo: Zucchini Carpaccio Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Parmesan cheese, for shaving
- 1 baguette, sliced, for serving
Directions
Using a sharp vegetable peeler, shave the zucchini lengthwise, creating very thin slices. Discard the first slice that is very dark green skin. Arrange the slices on a platter, overlapping the slices.
In a small jar or bowl, place the lemon juice, olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper. Cover and shake well or whisk to blend. Pour the mixture evenly over the zucchini slices. Allow to sit for at least 15 minutes, or for up to an hour.
Use vegetable peeler to shave thin slices of Parmesan over the zucchini, and serve with baguette slices.

I was SO happy to unexpectedly come across a raw food recipe on the Food Network!! I just happened to be watching Ten Dollar Dinners today from DVR and saw Melissa make this dish. Yea Melissa! Thank you so much for making eating raw vegetables so easy and appealing and mainstream. I made this for the first time tonight and the only thing I did differently was add a teaspoon of raw honey to the dressing. We had it without the cheese. DELICIOUS. I was shocked. And, my 7 year old daughter actually ate it and LIKED it. I wish Food Network would do more with raw, healthy foods or how to make eating vegetables appealing. A must try for sure!

I served this tonight to extended family as a side dish. It was a huge hit! Everyone commented on how light and fresh it was, and the flavor was great. Super simple to make. I tripled the recipe and it was yummy.

I love this recipe. I've made for several people and every single person loved it. They've all asked me or the recipe.
