A trillion Zucchini

Why would someone plant a bunch of zucchini only to get mad that there are so many of them. I like the veggie. I would plant one plant. Is that a hard concept to grasp? And there seems to be anger involved in the tossing of spoiled zucchini. Well, I did make 2 loaves of bread with it. (also made one batch choc. chip cookies w/ walnuts and one with pecans.) but no,...no zucchini. So what's a good wife to do? I will adjust my menu.

Sunday: Breakfast - Oatmeal with zucchini.
Lunch - Grilled cheese and zucchini with a bowl of zucchini soup.
Dinner - Zucchini stuffed pork chops with zucchini slaw.

Monday: Breakfast - Zucchini omelet with zucchini juice.
Lunch - Zucchini salad with zucchini dressing and zucchini bread.
Dinner - Order take-out! Zucchini pizza, extra zucchini.

I won't go any further. This isn't women's day you know!!!

Zucchini on a vegetable tray is great and a little in a salad, the rest can to the homeless mission.

Sounds out of control, like our sago palms... but you can't eat those!

I am not a huge zuccini fan, but I hear you about getting upset about a bountiful harvest being silly.

I would never complaing about it myself, we have two plants and six yellow squash plants to boot so needless to say we are eating good plus giving a bunch away, I rarely tire of fresh veggies.

Oh girl you can also squash it up and bathe in it if you want. Or give your husband a zucchini enema! Now there's an idea!

If you have too much, you can also grate it like you would for a loaf of bread but freeze it, instead. Then you have zucchini for bread (or Chocolate Zucchini Cake that's really good, too!) when you don't have access to the fresh stuff.

I love chunks of zucchini fried a little and thrown in with the spaghetti sauce. Yum!
