This might just be the best easy vegan grilled zucchini burger recipe you will ever try. It’s delicious, packed with bbq flavours and so good it will make a meat lover forget it’s vegan. Plus, it’s super quick and easy to make. Grilled zucchini is always on my top 5 favourite list, because it’s delicious and soaks up all the seasonings in the best way. Not to mention the way the seasonings lightly caramelise and becomes crispy and irresistible when you grill zucchini. All I can say is; yum. There’s no other words to describe grilled squash.

Instructions
Rinse the zucchinis and pat them dry with a clean towel. Cut the ends off, and slice the zucchinis lengthwise into quarter inch thick slices.
Brush the zucchini slices with olive oil and bbq sauce on both sides and season generously with the greek spice mix and a little salt.
Grill the zucchini on a grill, BBQ or on a grill pan for around 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the zucchini are starting to become golden and char lightly at the edges.
While the zucchini is grilling, lightly toast or grill your burger buns. Spread a dollop of cashew garlic cream cheese on the bottom burger bun.
Next, spread vegan pesto on the top burger bun at this stage to add extra flavour to the burger.
Finally, add a tablespoon of my Maltese salsa and spread it out. Top with the grilled zucchini and place the top burger bun on top. Serve and enjoy all the yumminess.
