Grilled Marinated Zucchini Stracciatella Crostini

Grilled Marinated Zucchini Stracciatella Crostini is an easy peasy appetizer that everyone will love!

I tasted this recipe for the first time in Rome at my best friends (Giancarlino) restaurant Hotel Butterfly.

I decided to remake this recipe giving it my special twist by adding Mint. And I have to say… sorry Giancarlino… but mine tastes better! 🙂

If you’re a garlic lover, you can choose to mince the garlic and keep it in the marinade instead of removing it.

You can substitute 1 tsp Garlic Powder if you don’t have Garlic cloves.
