I’ve already experimented with some recipes over the years, and a few emerged as favorites, but I’m always up for discovering more ways to enjoy this hard worker from my garden.
We have 3 definite winners in our home: fried zucchini with garlic mayonnaise, zucchini cake (a recipe I found while flipping a Vegetarian Times magazine about 10 years ago), and the spiralized zucchini fries below. YUM!
