Bacon-Wrapped, Grilled Zucchini Strips!

[TentHunteR]

Here's an easy peasy low-carb dish you can add to your next Summer cookout!

Bacon-Wrapped, Grilled Zucchini Strips



Simply wash and cut some zucchini (or yellow) squash into 3" - 4" wedges, wrap with 1/2 strip of bacon
(thinner bacon works best for this), and season with your favorite seasonings.


Cook on your grill using indirect heat (outside edges, upper shelf, etc.) along with whatever else you're cooking. Brush occasionally with a low-carb vinaigrette (light olive oil and balsamic vinegar work well). Cook until bacon has crisped some and the squash is tender.



Enjoy!

Thanks for the recipe Cliff. Will definitely be trying this ... about how long and at what temp?

Time and temp aren't critical. Again, just cook with whatever else you're grilling, and until they're done and the bacon has crisped some (to your liking).  That's part of the beauty of side dish like this.

I have pre nuked the zukes before because the bigger the pieces, the longer they take to cook..I just nuked till about half done. Nuking really helps if your on a time crunch or need to make another batch.   .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.
