Cooking Instructions

Step 1
Begin by slicing the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds, creating perfect little discs.

Next, take each zucchini slice and dip it into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s fully enveloped in the egg mixture.

In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers invitingly.
