Zucchini. It’s affordable, easy to grow, deliciously versatile, and freakishly prolific. And this time of year, it’s absolutely everywhere.
But what’s a chef to do when the zucchini threatens to take over? Where can you turn when you find yourself buried in thigh-sized summer vegetables?
Never fear! The Lutheran Ladies are here to help, with an Iron Ladle Challenge all about zucchini. From Bri’s crispy zucchini fritters to Sarah’s oven-baked zucchini chips, from Rachel’s take on a classic French ratatouille to Erin’s mouth-watering zucchini bread, you’re sure to find a few tasty ideas for coping with the annual midsummer zucchini invasion.
