Can I use other cheeses? Yes — try cheddar, provolone, or dairy-free options.
How do I avoid soggy zucchini?
Don’t overcrowd the pan
Slice evenly
Pat dry before cooking
Can I bake instead of pan-fry? Absolutely. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway. Add cheese near the end and broil until bubbly.
Is it keto-friendly? Yes — zucchini is naturally low in carbs. Just watch your cheese portions.
Can I prep ahead? You can slice and store the zucchini in the fridge. Reheat in a skillet to keep it crisp.
