Charred Zucchini is a versatile and quick-to-make addition to your meals, perfect for any time of the day. Whether you top it on an omelet, slice it into a refreshing salad, or serve it alongside your favorite dish, this simple vegetable packs a punch in terms of flavor and health benefits.

Zucchini is rich in potassium, an essential electrolyte that helps maintain a healthy fluid balance in the body. Potassium is vital for heart function, muscle contractions, and overall hydration. Additionally, the phytonutrients found in zucchini promote bowel regularity, making it a great choice for digestive health and to support healthy gut function.

Zucchini is also a powerhouse when it comes to reducing cholesterol, lowering the risk of heart attacks, and improving metabolic balance. Its low-calorie content and high water content make it an ideal vegetable for those following a healthy, anti-inflammatory diet, such as the Eat Burn Sleep lifestyle.

Not only is charred zucchini full of nutrients, but it is also incredibly easy to prepare. Simply slice it, char it on the grill or in a pan, and enjoy its smoky flavor that perfectly complements other anti-inflammatory dishes. It’s a fast and delicious way to increase your vegetable intake without spending much time in the kitchen.

This healthy, nutrient-dense vegetable is ideal for anyone looking to eat mindfully, support their digestive health, and enhance their overall wellness with minimal effort. Charred zucchini makes it easy to add more goodness to your meals, all while keeping it simple, nutritious, and flavorful.

Ingredients

  • 3 medium-sized zucchini
  • 1/2 tsp of sea salt
  • A crunch of black pepper
  • 1 tbsp of olive oil

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven (fan oven) on the grill/broiler mode. Cut the zucchini lengthwise and place in a baking dish. Sprinkle with sea salt, a scrunch of black pepper, and drizzle the olive oil.

  2. Place under the grill for 10 minutes or until it darkens. Take out of the oven and serve immediately as a side dish.

Storage Tips

This dish can be prepared in advance. It keeps in the fridge for up to 2 days.
