MARINATED ZUCCHINI SALAD
Raw zucchini can be a dull ingredient, but when it's very thinly sliced it marinates beautifully, especially in lemon juice. I like to use a mixture of green and yellow squash here. Assemble this dish at least four hours before you wish to serve it, so that the squash has time to soften and soak up the lemony marinade.

Steps:

- Mix together the lemon juice, garlic and olive oil. Toss with the zucchini. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for four to six hours.
- Remove from the refrigerator, and remove the garlic clove. Add the fresh herbs, and toss together. Taste, adjust seasoning and serve.

ZUCCHINI MARINATA (MARINATED ZUCCHINI SALAD)
A simple marinated zucchini salad from Italy. The zucchini is uncooked but through marinating and the use of plenty of lemon juice the zucchini acquires an "al dente"/semi-cooked texture. I only make this recipe at the peak of zucchini season in summer when quality and selection are best. From Mediterranean Light. Especially good with fresh basil!

Steps:
- Note: It is your choice to peel or not peel the zuchhini.
- Toss the thinly sliced zucchini with the lemon juice, garlic halves, olive oil; salt and pepper to taste. (If I think about it, sometimes I add a bit of finely grated lemon zest, too.) Remember to use a non-reactive bowl for marinating.
- Cover bowl and refrigerate 4-8 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Once you are ready to serve the salad, remove the garlic cloves. Save one garlic clove, finely minced and toss back into the salad along with the fresh herb of choice. *Important*: stir in the fresh herbs with the zucchini mixture [just] before serving.
- Adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Best eaten within 24 hours.

MARINATED ZUCCHINI SALAD
Meet the Cook: This recipe has been passed down for generations in my family - it helps to use up the late-summer squash from the garden, and it'll keep for several days in the refrigerator. Wherever I take it, I have to take the recipe, too! Now that we're retired (we have one son), my husband and I enjoy being at home with each other, gardening...and trying out plenty of recipes. -Billie Blanton, Kingsport, Tennessee

RAW ZUCCHINI SALAD WITH MARINATED FETA AND LEMON
Zucchini is a summer staple that people often think needs to be cooked, but zucchini is equally delicious prepared as a raw salad. This dish quickly marinates feta cheese to give it extra flavor and depth then the reserved marinade is used to dress the zucchini. This dish screams summer and is the perfect fresh bite for any meal.

Steps:
- Combine the olive oil, garlic, crushed red pepper and half of the lemon zest in a medium saucepan. Warm over medium heat until the garlic is fragrant, softened and starting to turn golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the feta pieces. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature and up to overnight in the refrigerator (see Cook's Note).
- Mince the remaining lemon zest and reserve for garnish.
- Arrange the zucchini coins in a concentric circle on a large platter. Season with salt and black pepper. Sprinkle with the juice from one of the lemon halves and drizzle with some of the olive oil from the feta.
- Remove the feta from the olive oil with a slotted spoon and scatter over the zucchini, breaking up the pieces into smaller bits. Top with the herbs and pine nuts. Drizzle with more olive oil from the feta and sprinkle with the minced lemon zest and juice from the remaining lemon half. Enjoy!
