Zuccini Recipes

I thought someone posted a recipe for a baked zucchini dish. I think it had zucchini, cheddar cheese, maybe eggs and milk, onions? I think someone liked it with Italian sausage or ham included?

I received 2 large zucchini today from a traditional gardener friend and I have to do something with it! DH does not like zucchini that much unless it' hidden in something.

Hide that zucchini in plain sight!

Dang. He doesn't like apple pie so this won't work. He already saw the zucchini, so this main dish has to be really camouflaged with onion, garlic, sharp cheese, spicy turkey sausage, etc. Something maybe lasagna style?

Maybe an Intense flavored chocolate cake?

Zucchini chocolate cake by King Arthur sounds interesting enough to read (after I turn my compost pile). Sun is going down.

How about zuke cookies? I've got a really good recipe I could post if you want it, Sanderson.

**sanderson** 5/9/2014, 12:24 pm

Marie, Yes, and thanks.

I recently saw a facebook posting about a spiral cutter for making zoodles (zucchini noodles) to substitute for pasta. It has fallen off my pages now. Same idea as spaghetti squash I guess.

You know, Kay, I wonder if the julienne cutter that came with my Titan peeler we were talking about a few days ago would do the same thing... I'll have to try it once my zukes are up...

I'll let you know.

Sanderson, posting the cookie recipe next.

I remembered the FB post mentioned Amazon so I looked it up.

http://www.amazon.com/Kitchen-Basics-Spiral-Vegetable-Slicer/dp/B00H4F9LXG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1399706993&sr=8-1&keywords=zucchini+spaghetti+maker

According to the recipe sites, any julienne cutter will work.

I do remember that after cutting the zoodles, you needed to salt them and let them sit a while to allow excess water to drain out before using as a pasta substitute.

HUH... Who'da thunk it... I've never seen any of those before. And I like my kitchen gadgets! How cool...

Thanks for the advice on draining. Makes sense!

Thank, Kay!

I have a Mandolin slicer that works really well but is a lot of work to clean up, so we bought the little spiral cutter shown on TV and it works really well to make "pasta." If you buy it or use any slicer one tip is to cut the stem as long as possible for a handle. They include a cap to use to push it down but it's so so effective.

We end up with little cone shaped pieces and we slice up and add to salads.

zucchini chocolate chip cookies Or some variation of this theme

**AtlantaMarie** 5/11/2014, 8:10 am

MMMmmmmmm... drooling

Might have to try that one out...

I'm ASSUMING that the zuke should be drained. I think the mix would be too liquidy otherwise.

This looks delicious. I will have to try it. Zucchini fritters:

Zucchini kosher dill pickles. I'm lazy and use the Mrs. Wages mix found at Walmart, but it makes a crisp pickle. Add a hot pepper to each pint jar for a different taste.

You can always make ratatoule ......... if you remove the skin/rind the zuc dissapears in the mush .

Same with a root based soup with or without meat using chicken , beef or ham stock .
It's good for putting a bit of body in the soups turning them from dishwater to a slightly fiberous thickened soup .

One of my DIL posted this on Facebook. For me, it looks like comfort food for winter. http://www.justataste.com/5-ingredient-zucchini-fritters-recipe/

Bump

There are several recipes here to use up zucchini.

These sound great, I have never grown the zucchini. I am a patty pan girl. But there is a lot of versatility to the zuke...

**sanderson** 7/27/2022, 4:07 pm

Zucchini Cakes from someone else:

"Zucchini Cakes

I used about:
3 cups freshly grated deseeded zuke
1 egg
1/2 c parm
1/2 c panko crumbs
Heaping teaspoon of minced garlic
Old bay to taste. I use a lot.

Steamed the zuke for just a few minutes to soften and then let it cool. Mix in all the other stuff. Used a 1/2 cup measuring cup to scoop out nice round servings, shaped like a burger. Baked at 400 for about ten minutes, gently flipped for another ten minutes, then under broiler for about three minutes to get that nice crunch on top

These would be terrific in an air fryer, but mine is a basket style and too hard to flip. LOL"
