Lemon juice is an okay substitute for the zest, but try for zest - the flavour is really different. Can also add finely chopped spring onions.

    Wonderful recipe, the lemon zucchini combination took me by surprise. I just changed the parsley with taragon which I enjoy very much. Here it is the result: http://www.len.ro/photo/cooking/slides/dovleceii_minunati_4.html Merci beaucoup :)
