We’re all about garden fresh veggies in the summer, except I am not a fan of zucchini. It’s soggy and has a weird consistency. Not my favorite. UNTIL, I whipped up this delicious Zucchini Tart. I’ve been making it once a week all summer and it is delicious. Am I a squash loving convert? Perhaps. Even my pickiest, not veggie eating child loved this. Serve as a side or an appetizer. The leftovers reheat really well, plop a fried egg on top and you’ve got a fancy breakfast.
Today we are making a Zucchini Tart. It’s super easy and takes 20 min. Let’s go!

Equipment
- 1 baking sheet
- oven (regular or convection)
Ingredients
- 1 sheet defrosted puff pastry
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/8 cup chopped, fresh mixed herbs (heavy on basil) Any herbs will do, I used what was in my garden. Sage, thyme, parsley and basil
- 2 med zucchinis (or squash) peeled in strips with a potato peeler
- 1 egg for egg wash on crust optional
Instructions
- roll out the defrosted puff pastry on parchment lined cookie sheet
- spread the ricotta over the puff pastry sheet, leaving the edges clean (like a pizza crust)
- sprinkle 3/4 of the chopped herb mix on the cheese
- layer the zucchini strips on top of the cheese, you can do a pattern if you are fancy
- paint the edges of the pastry with egg wash
- bake in over at 400 for 15 min.
- let cool when it comes out of the oven, sprinkle remaining herbs, salt and pepper on top
