zucchini parmesan, zucchini boats, zucchini flowers, zucchini omelette...


(said in the Bubba voice from Forrest Gump)

With an abundance of zucchini in the garden here on Via Monte, I can't help but think of Bubba's shrimp menu that lasted through military marches, storms and battles. We have so many zucchini that each day it seems we have a new way of preparing them.

Roasted zucchini, zucchini fritters, zucchini boats, zucchini parmesan, pasta with zucchini, stuffed zucchini flowers, zucchini with mint, zucchini omelette and the list goes on.

It is a good thing that I am more than happy to eat zucchini every which way. In fact, my eyes open wide and my mouth starts to water when the morning sun shines on long delicate slices of zucchini laid out on the table on the terrace to dry in the sun.
