Microwave-Steamed Zucchini image

My daughter and I love zucchini this way. So easy....no chopping, dicing, etc. Give it a try, and use one zucchini, or as many as you need. I use non-fat spray, so extremely diet-friendly. Parmesan cheese or bacon bits are good additions.

I cooked the zucchini in my air fryer instead of the microwave. It turned out crispy and delicious.

I didn't have any garlic on hand, so I used onion powder instead. It turned out great!

This recipe was a bit too oily for my taste. I would use less oil next time.

The zucchini was a bit undercooked for my taste. I would cook it for an extra minute or two next time.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would add some salt and pepper to taste.

I'm not a fan of microwaving vegetables, but this recipe changed my mind. The zucchini was cooked evenly and perfectly, and it retained its bright green color.
