    Zucchini lasagna (using the zucchini in place of noodles)... Zoodles! Chocolate chip walnut cookies with shredded zucchini (google 'zucchini cookies'), zucchini bread, roll up lunch meat and cheese in strips of zucchini, give some to your dog (for some reason one of my dogs goes crazy for it!)

    I just bought a veggito pro ... cuts anything such as zucchini into spiral cuts like spaghetti.
    I got it at Rite Aid on clearance for $12. It's pretty nifty and cool to make an 'old' into a 'new'!!

    Roast it! It will shrink a lot in size.

    get a spiralizer. google it. its makes like noodles. you can use up a lot of zucchini this way. i use it like pasta or in a stir fry dish. so good. it just sort of adapts whatever flavor you put it with.

    Yesterday I pan fried it with olive oil and season all salt. My first time with it and it was amazing! This weekend I'm going to try zucchini bread. My neighbors have me a while bunch of it so I'm going to try different things with it. Never tried zucchini until this year. I'm glad I finally did though

    Baked zucchini tomato casserole. Not really a recipe. Could be easily adapted with what you have available. Spiralized zucchini and yellow squash. Lightly salted in strainer to get rid of excess liquid. Then put in baking dish. Topped with maybe half cup spaghetti sauce, small amount Parmesan. Chopped tomatoes. Season to your choosing. I used some garlic powder, fresh basil , fresh oregano. Baked at 350 til tender, hot and bubbly. Delicious!
