We've had LOTS of fresh zucchini from our garden. One thing that we've been using it for is zucchini bread. It's so good.Thank goodness for my food processor. Today I had a ton of zucchini to put away. My recipe calls for 2 cups of shredded zucchini so I put 2 cups in each freezer bag.
Oops - I didn't take a picture of the bread,
but here's the recipe.
