Zucchini Parmesan Foil Packets
Minimum effort, zero clean-up and easy serving! These can also be grilled or baked so you can have it anytime, anywhere!
Is it me or are you guys just as obsessed with foil packets as me?
Obsessed may be an understatement actually. It’s my life.
Because basically everything is getting shoved into a foil packet and baked (or grilled) right now – it just depends on my mood.
And with this asian salmon in foil and these parmesan zucchini foil packets, I’ve had this same dinner nonstop for weeks.
No, wait. Sometimes these zucchini packets are my only dinner. That’s all you really need – veggies and Parmesan cheese.
Oh, and I haven’t done dishes in two weeks with these foil dinners so there’s that.
Zucchini Parmesan Foil Packets

- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Instructions

yak, these look very spicy 🙂
It’s not spicy at all! The red pepper flakes are simply added as a garnish – it is a completely optional ingredient.
Have you added some chilli flakes? These look delicious.
Yes! 🙂
These look so good but what’s the red coloring from ?
Crushed red pepper flakes! 🙂
Just bought some zucchini yesterday, thanks to you, I know how they will be prepared today with dinner. You ROCK! Thanks for help making dinner a little easier.
Hi Chungah! I absolutely LOVE your website. I’ve tried quite a few of your recipes and they are ‘damn delicious’!!!!!
Do you think you’ll ever list the nutritional breakdown for your recipes(calorie, protein, fat, etc.)?
Thanks so much!
The nutritional information has just been added right below the recipe. 🙂
Did the color on top come from the grill or did you put it under the broiler after?
I popped it under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes to get that beautiful golden brown crust.
Who knew zucchini could look so delicious?! We’re going to have to make this asap with all the zucchini coming out of our garden right now!
