This Grilled Parmesan Zucchini is the perfect summer recipe for a simple, healthy, and delicious vegetable side dish!

There are certain things that must happen every summer to, well, make it feel like summer. And because I’m crazy about food, most of them happen to be edible:

Marshmallows must be roasted over a campfire and s’mores must follow – check.

Sleep in (a lot) – check.

Hamburgers must be grilled – check (times gazillion).

Watermelon must be eaten in mass quantities – check.

Have a movie night. With popcorn. – check.

Eat all the zucchini. – work in progress.

I normally don’t like eating the same food over and over again, but this summer especially, I am zucchini-obsessed! I make it in some way for almost every meal – sauteed, grilled, shredded…I just can’t get enough.

I saute it in the morning to go with my eggs, I fill zucchini boats with taco meat for lunch, and grill it up for dinner. It just goes so well with every meal (oh, and shredded zucchini in muffins for a snack!).

Some people need more cowbell…I just need more zucchini.

Grilled Parmesan Zucchini 

For this recipe, slice the zucchini into thick coins and slide them onto skewers. Then brush them with olive oil.

And mix together your topping – Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and pepper.

Sprinkle it onto your zucchini coins.

And press it on there a bit to help it stick. Do that for both sides of your zucchini.

Then toss ’em on the grill!

Everything is better with grill marks.

Grilling these melts the cheese and adds just a hint of saltiness so that the taste of the fresh, summery zucchini still shines. And they go well with just about everything! But I recommend eating them alongside a juicy grilled burger with a big ol’ bowl of watermelon…and s’mores for dessert. 😉
