How to Use Up All That Zucchini

Happy "National Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor’s Porch" Day!  It’s officially peak zucchini season. For home gardeners, it’s both a blessing and a struggle — the bumper crop can quickly take over your yard, fridge, kitchen counter … your entire life. And when coworkers start avoiding eye contact as you arrive with a tote bag, take the hint: they, too, have hit maximum squash saturation. You can stick with the porch-sneaking tradition, or follow our lead. Here’s how we’re happily eating our way through the surplus.
