If you have amassed a zucchini bounty but you’re running out ideas for how to prepare it, check out our favorite zucchini recipes.
The first year we planted a garden we found ourselves delightfully and entirely overrun with zucchini of every shape and size to the point of overwhelm.

Enter these delicious zucchini recipes – an array of sweet and savory ways to use up an abundance of zucchini or make the most of your farmer’s market haul.
