Notes

This Savory Zucchini Tiramisu is perfect for summer gatherings and can be made a day in advance. Keep the layers separate until just before serving to ensure the crackers remain crunchy. Feel free to substitute dill with other herbs like parsley or basil, and if any ingredient is missing, I suggest using alternatives listed in the substitution options. Enjoy your creation!
