We've hit summer.
Temperatures near 100˚ for as far as the forecast goes, corn over head high, and zucchini the size of baseball bats (well, not quite, but close.) I have a feeling it's going to be long July of finding creative ways to use the abundance of zucchini. I grew up on zucchini bread and really nothing else. For the longest time I had no clue zucchini could be used for anything except sweet bread.
This quesadilla is a snap to throw together and I think you could even convince your meat-grilling friends to save you some space on the grill! Additions of summer squash and eggplant would also be delicious!

This looks gorgeous and such a wonderful combination of flavours - love the cumin and lime, it makes it sound so summery!
I'm totally starting to collect more and more zucchini recipes every year because I always have so much! This one is definitely being saved, thank Erin!
Such a simple, yet inspired recipe. A great lunch. I'll be making this soon.
Thanks for posting this. It sounds delicious.
A gorgeous snack! I am loving the flavours. Thanks for sharing Erin 🙂

Hi! I am really enjoying reading all of the creative recipes on your blog. I made this dish last night and it was absolutely delicious!! WOW, had no idea zucchini could taste this good. I used pepper jack cheese (just b/c it's my favorite). Thanks so much for sharing!
Just made this one. My husband loved it (and he's not a zucchini fan.) Thanks!
Oh my gosh these sound fabulous!!
