Do you have a spiralizer (Saldacco)? You can make zucchini "pasta" and eat it with fresh tomato sauce straight from the garden. Scrumptious!

Slicer them, season and dry. Zucchini chips. I think Wildmouse posted a Middle Eastern seasoning that sounded made for zucc chips.

Do you know why people in the country lock their car doors in the summer? So they don't get filled up with extra zucchinis! LOL

LOL! Where I live it's tomatoes and zucchini! I love the stuff but need to find lots of ways to prepare them. Half of one shelf in my fridge are zucchini as big as submarines. When I see someone selling them 5/$1.00 my eyes get wide as saucers and I buy all five! Then I get home and have no idea what I'm going to do with them!!! ;-)GloriaGloria
