15 Delicious Zucchini Recipes to Try Right Now.

Posted on February 5, 2018 Leave a Comment

At the start of each spring I say “Lets plant lots of zucchinis. We love zucchini!”

But by mid summer, when I am bringing in armfuls of giant zucchinis every day, I realise that I probably only needed to plan one zucchini seedling!

What do I do with all these zucchinis?

My friends all turn and walk away when they see me coming with yet another zuc, and it seems such a waste to just feed them to the chickens, so I guess I’ll just have to get creative and try some of these delicious zucchini recipes.

Recipes you can add zucchini to.

Grated zucchini can be added to so many recipes. It bulks out and adds an extra hit of veggies to pasta sauce, curry, chilli and more.

You can freeze grated zucchini to add to recipes such as the ones below. It will add some extra liquid to the recipe so you may have to increase simmering time. If you are adding it to burgers or meatballs you may need to chop it after it is grated, and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
