With summer coming to an end, you probably have an overabundance
of zucchini from your garden that you are trying to find recipes
for. Or maybe you know someone who is trying to find homes for
all of their excess zucchini! You'd be amazed at all the meals
you can create with zucchini. Here are just a few ideas.

Hollow out zucchini with a spoon. After scooping out zucchini,
chop remaining insides into small pieces. In a medium-sized
saucepan, cook rice with water, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and
oil for about 15 minutes. Add chopped zucchini and cook 5 more
minutes. Add bread crumbs, parsley, juice from the lemon, the egg
white, mushrooms, and cheese. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. ...
