Dear Tyler, We (at home) LOVE it! My husband, and my 5 year old daughter, loved this recipe. I used lime (instead of... lemon) and we liked it a lot! Thanks a Million! Elizabeth Read more

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made this a half a dozen times. I like to let the zucchini sit in the lemon juice for at least an hour. A few toasted pine... nuts adds some crunch and smoky flavor. It's a perfect palette cleanser before desert! Read more

Deceivingly delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I didn't think that raw zucchini would be so good with such a light dressing, but this one is a favorite side of every guest... at my table recently. I used a shallot instead of a leek.Read more
