    I planted Zucchini just to be able to make some hotdog & hamburger relish. If you plan to bake a yummy cake or muffins put the shredded veggie in a dishtowel and wring out the excess juices.

    yep!! both lecale and bluerose listed much of what I would have. zucchini muffins are fantastic and nutritious and your DH will never taste the veg in them! lol When undecided freeze it ( after washing, chopping or grating it all) for sure as a recipe will eventually come along for you to use

    Maybe some of the zucchini could be quartered and fried 'til light golden in oil on stovetop and seasoned with salt and white pepper when removed from the pan. Makes a great side dish for you when you don't want salad.

    If you have back issues of Food & Drink (or go to www.lcbo.ca), look for zucchini fritters and the like.

    Large zucchini seems to be a summer garden gift that sends lots of folks finding a way to avoid them. My brother's friend gave us two large ones. I think I made use of one but tired to find the enthusiasm to use up number two (it went to the compost pail).

    Oh I wish I had a zucchini problem. My zucchini plants aren't producing anything this year. Others gave you great suggestions.

    I had a couple of relatives in the Niagara area that could have kept you in zucchini one summer, Angela273! I don't know why so many were planted or so big.
