need some good recipes. Dads garden just came in and i need some ideas besides frying.
also has anyone ever froze zuccini? how did you do it?0 -
Yes- It freezes very well! I just cut it or shredd it (this is good for bread) and then put it in plastic bags in the amount of recipes that I want to use it for. Then when I want to make something I can just take out one bag. and not have to thaw a whole bunch to break it apart.
You can bake it with herbs and a little olive oil.
Good Luck! I love Zucchini!0 -

MEXICAN ZUCCHINI SOUP

1 1/2 tsp. butter
2 c. chicken broth
2 c. unpeeled, diced zucchini (2 sm.)
1 1/2 c. corn kernels, fresh or canned or frozen

My family does this but tosses in some diced tomatoes and simmer....top with low fat cheese....sooo good. With diced tomatoes already seasoned you can alter it depending on meals.0 -
I don't have a 'recipe', but I stuff zucchini quite often. Cut a strip in the top and scoop out center. Put in boiling water for about 2 or 3 mintues and then drain on paper towels.
Cook rice, tomatoes, onion, and bit of cheese if you like. Really you can use anything. Sometimes I add tuna and tomatoes, tuna, capers, & bread crumbs.....whatever you want.
Spoon filling into zucchini, then bake in oven for about 20 minutes at 190 deg.
Sorry I don't have better information, but it's something easy you can experiment with and track calories,etc, as you add ingredients.0
