Zucchini slice is an absolute winner for school lunches because it tastes just as good (if not better!) cold.

Making the slice into muffins makes it a little easier for kids to eat on the go at school, and they are the perfect portions for freezing.

  • I make zucchini slice all the time, in fact, I made it tonight. But it never occurred to me to make zucchini slice muffins. This would be really handy for kids lunchboxes and also for my work lunch. I like the addition of canned corn, that’s something my recipe doesn’t have. Nice! So glad I saw this recipe.

  • So glad to have stumbled upon this recipe. Our garden is now flourishing with zucchinis and our chickens are laying flat out. This recipe sounds great and I think they would be a great addition to our daughters lunch box who has just started kinder. Thank you for the share, definitely making these

  • This is a nice recipe for sure ! I would most certainly add some garlic. I wonder if we should squeeze out any liquid from the zucchini after grating them ? My experience is that the liquid can make muffins quite soggy. The one thing sadly my kids don’t like is cold savoury muffins, it limits options for sure.

  • These are great a quick easy snack and yummy breakfast on the go my grandkids love them when they come around and they love helping to make them even take them home to take to school and kinder.
    Can be changed to suit every taste. I like to add diced bacon and chopped tomato

  • This recipe is so very timely because I have been given so many zucchinis from people that seem to have an over abundance of them at the moment. I will most definitely be making zucchini muffins, zucchini cake and zucchini slice and other foods and recipes that contain yummy zucchini.

  • I have always been a big fan of sweet muffins and also savoury muffins. Muffins are such a good food to add to lunchboxes and they are easy to pick up and easy to eat too. I do love zucchini and it is such a versatile vegetable to use when cooking.
