This Yellow Squash and Zucchini Carpaccio is a delicious, Vegetarian, healthy appetizer that is sure to please anyone!

Typically a Carpaccio is dish of raw meat or fish thinly sliced or pounded out flat. I decided to make a Vegetarian version by using Yellow Squash and Zucchini, slicing it very thin.

Not only is this delicious, but it’s also a beautiful presentation. Alternating the Yellow Squash and the Zucchini on a platter, then adding a handful of Sprouts to the center.

I also added some Capers and Sun-Dried Tomatoes around the Squash for more color and flavor.

Drizzled with a refreshing dressing made of Lemon Juice, EVOO, Mint, Basil, Salt, and Pepper… Wow!

Oh and don’t forget to top it off with shaved Pecorino Toscano D.O.P.!

You will be surprised how amazing the combination of all the ingredients are together.

It’s:

• Light
• Tasty
