1
Heat the grill to medium high. Brush the cut zucchini with a little of the olive oil. Grill on each side for about 3 to 4 minutes, until slightly tender and grill marks appear. Remove from grill and let sit until cool enough to handle.
2
Cut zucchini into large pieces and put in the bowl of a food processor. Add the garlic and cheese and pulse; drizzle in the remaining olive oil until a chunky puree forms. Season with salt and pepper and serve with flatbreads, crackers or pita.
