Two easy recipes

One is to slice the zucchini into rounds. Dip in flour and then dip in egg (sounds backwards, but it works). Gently fry in olive oil until golden on both sides (about 4 minutes per side if pan is hot). Drain on paper towels.
Serve with lemon slices.

The second way is also to slice in rounds, but to saute in a pan with 3 pats of butter or margarine, 1 tbs olive oil. Add parsley, salt and pepper. Saute about 8 minutes, drain and serve.

Saute sliced potatoes, zucchini and tomatoes in butter with a little bit of oregeno. Put in a baking dish and sprinkle with cheddar cheese. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until all the veggies are tender and the cheese is bubbly and melted.

1.Cut the zucchini, take the skin off, then bread them (dip in butter, then bread crums) and fry them in a fry pan.......

2. Cut the zucchini, leaving the skin on, mix with spiral noodles, other vegetables, and chicken (like a stir-fry) and cook all at once. Then put some Italian dressing on the whole thing.....

Both are delicious!

Yum , fresh zucchini!! Fire up your grill, cut off the ends and slice into 1/2 inch slices and toss in vegetable oil and chopped garilc. Salt and pepper. Grill for 1-2 minutes on each side. Super tasty, fast and healthy. Great with grilled chicken and a nice tomato and red onion salad.
