Plus, this recipe requires just three ingredients, not including basics like salt, pepper and oil.
Feta and fontina cheeses add a rich depth of flavor.
Serve it for brunch or anytime you have extra zucchini on hand.

Egg Salad Lettuce Wraps
We love the retro vibe of these egg salad lettuce wraps.
Iceberg lettuce makes a perfect low-carb swap for bread to serve the egg salad.
Caprese Sandwich
This caprese sandwich is fresh from the basil and hearty from thick, crusty ciabatta.
The sun-dried tomatoes deepen the flavor.
Cheesy Marinara Beans
This ooey-gooey dish has baked-pasta vibes but features protein-packed beans instead of noodles.
Look for dried corona beans, a larger, creamy white bean, at natural-foods stores or online.
Cannellini are a good substitute.
Serve with a green salad and toasted baguette.
Cilantro Bean Burgers with Creamy Avocado-Lime Slaw
Lighten up your burger!
Bean patties have less saturated fat and more fiber than beef patties.
A dollop of sour cream zhuzhed up with beet and lime adds even more flavor.
Look for precooked beets in the produce department of your grocery store.

We love the crunch of the sunflower seeds and the unexpected flavor of roasted peppers.
Falafel Salad with Lemon-Tahini Dressing
Deep-fried falafel can be a total grease bomb.
But these pan-seared falafel still get crispy in just a few tablespoons of oil with equally satisfying results.
