Zucchini burgers in a pan, oven, or air fryer.
This delicious dish is great as an appetizer or even as a main course.
Easy to make, and I assure you one leads to another.
Moreover, the breadcrumbs used will be seasoned Sicilian style, so that it encapsulates the right flavor and aroma needed to enrich the almost bland taste of zucchinis.

This idea is ideal for children who do not like vegetables, as they will not realize they are eating them.
Moreover, zucchini counteracts water retention and is a friend of the urinary tract and intestines.
