Zucchini Recipes

So lately I have been on a squash and zucchini kick. My sister in law and mother in law gave me a bunch of squash and zucchini from their gardens, so I found some yummy recipes that I could make with it! I love all 3 of these recipes.. Especially the casserole. My Hubby loved it! Enjoy! -Julie
