Ingredients

• 4 small zucchini, thinly sliced
• 1/2 small sweet onion (such as Vidalia), thinly sliced
• 1/2 bunch fresh parsley, minced
• 1 lemon, zested and juiced
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons white sugar
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup light olive oil

Directions

Place zucchini slices in a colander for 10 minutes, allowing juices to release; pat dry.

Combine zucchini, onion, and parsley together in a bowl.
