Diane says
You can dehydrate zucchini and make zucchini.chips too!
I love seeing people bless your family.
Brigette says
That’s a great idea! I have a nice dehydrator, but I always forget about it for some reason. Thank you for reminding me.
Beth says
I grew up in the country. The joke was that the only time people locked their car doors was during zucchini and squash season ;). And yay for fried squash!!
Brigette says
Haha! We were THRILLED with the big bag we got this week.🙂 My 11-yr old is trying to grow zucchini for the first time this year…so it’s possible we will be sick of them before the season ends! But probably not.😉
