Help! Zucchinis are taking over! I need recipes to cook them.
I planned a few too many zucchini plants and now I'm harvesting 3-4 large zucchini a day. What are some favorite recipes that I can freeze and have that fresh from the garden taste in the winter.

I think this recipe, for Chocolate Zucchini Bread from Kelsey Banfield, over at the Naptime Chef, would be awesome (and there's a video!):

I like stuffed zucchini, with Greek seasonings, mushroom, onions and Greek tomato sauce. Scoop out the insides with a melon baller and chop that with the veggies and cook with ground meat. Spice it with ginger, cumin, oregano, thyme, cinnamon, garlic and lemon zest. And cover with Greek tomato sauce and bake until the zucchini is soft and finish with oiled bread crumbs.
I don't know how well that would freeze tho.
