This is so very good! I loved it. I had a very large homegrown zucchini that I sliced on the bias and I used a tomatoey Italian dressing. I let the zucchini sit in the dressing for a little while before I barbequed it. I cooked it a bit longer than necessary, perhaps, but I enjoyed the lightly burnt crusty parts. It was really very easy, fast and delicious! However, my non-zucchini-eating husband and son didn't like it. Oh what a shame....more for me! :-) I'm uploading a picture, too, so you can see how pretty the grill mark look!

Very easy with a subtle taste. We didn't cook as long as in instructions as they were done sooner.

This was great. The only zucchini I have ever liked was cut thin and fried or in zucchini bread. I just cooked one zucchini as a sample, convinced before I ever put it on the grill that no one would like it, boy was I wrong. My inlaws came for dinner and everyone only got a taste which definately wasn't enough. Thanks so much for such a great recipe it is definately a keeper!

We really liked this. I used the Foreman grill - nice change from the usual steamed or broiled. Thanks.

I was looking for a quick & simple recipe for zucchini to go with the steaks we were just about to grill. I wanted something healthy so I didn't want to saute it and this fit the bill. I used fat-free Italian dressing since that's all I had. I didn't even bother measuring it - just put the sliced zukes in a bowl and poured it on. Then I basted them with the leftover dressing while they grilled. Delicious and healthy! Thanks M&Mers for a great idea.
