Sometimes preparing dinner can be a real nightmare because it’s never easy to prepare something delicious, so as to please everyone. So, to make no mistake, you could try the baked zucchini croquettes , which are made in just 10 minutes following an easy procedure.

Furthermore, to make them even more appetizing, they are accompanied by a really tasty sauce, which trust me is much better than the classic mayonnaise. And, perhaps most importantly, this is a very light dish because courgettes are a low-calorie vegetable. But let’s see how to prepare these zucchini croquettes!
