Pickles by Brian Crane for September 07, 2011

My wife makes very good zucchini cookies besidesbread.

A waste of good olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Fried Zucchini is GREAT this way: Cut in slices, season and batter (with a touch of cayenne) as you do chicken, then deep fry until golden brown. Serve with beer during any football game.

3/4 of all zucchini grown is eaten by Repubicans. The rest is thrown out.

Actually you can do that with peas or green beens, Earl But I’d take zucchini over those two any time.

you also can use it as a bonus word on a spelling test….

There are many great ways to have zucchini.

How can you tell people who don’t have many friends…you see them at the store BUYING zuccini.

Here’s one for you: I run it through my mandoline to make long, thin strands rather like spaghetti. Then I just toss it with a nice marinara sauce and voila! wheat-free, low-starch pseudopasta.

zucchini is the only type of squash I’ll eat… AndI love it any way it’s fixed.

I’m with Earl. I had zucchini not care much for it. Rather have peas/green beans. I don’t mind squash. Okra not fried but with stewed tomatoes.

I love meat loaf!

If all the zucchini in the world were laid end to end, I’d let it lie there.

Yup love that zucchini. Where I live we lock our car doors only on Sunday at church, else someone will fill your car with bags of zucchini.

Didn’t think I would find recipes in this comic, but thanks for the ideas! I had a couple of volunteers this year (perhaps the compost wasn’t as well cooked as I thought ;-) and have been enjoying the harvest!

Never zucchinis but cucumbers should be thrown out.

Awesome baked zucchini on alder recipe…

sliced salt/peppered zucchini Olive oil, garlic, oregeno and thymebake 25 mins @ 400Fthrow away zucchini, eat the board

The best way to eat zucchini is to dice it, put it in a baking dish w/olive oil or melted butter (YUM!), and sprinkle over it: chopped onion, celery, mozzarella cheese, salt, pepper. Bake at 350F for about a half hour, until topping is crispy and brown. Yum. It’s the ONLY way I can eat the stuff. Gotta hide it! ;)

What is Zucchini?

LOL xxx

hmmm..you can pickle cucumbers…there

must be a reason they don’t pickle zucchini.

My wife makes Chocolate Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread. It’s the only way she can get me to eat zucchini.

Zucchini blossoms are even better than zucchini!

I buy zucchini every week to feed to my tortoise Hemi, he loves it, me UGH!!

Zucchini fritters are delicious!

mmmm battered zucchini with dill sauce yum!

I use zucchini to make “summer apple” pie. My apples don’t ripen until late October, but you can replace the apples in pie with peeled and sliced zucchini and really can’t tell the difference.
