One last blast about zucchini! Last week I had a full tray of zucchini and I was done experimenting with recipes. Time to pull out the food processor to shred and freeze the last big batch. My little hand-held shredder was fine for one or two zucchinis to make one recipe. Now I had a pile and the food processor could handle it quickly…it probably took longer to clean up the machine when I was done than it took to shred all the zucchinis!
I had more to choose from, but the two biggest zucchinis ended up being composted…the seeds were too big!
I first cut all the zucchini into smaller pieces.
The chunks had to fit into the hole at the top:
The food processor has a nice shredding blade.
It took only a few minutes to shred all the zucchini!
All done!
I scooped 2 cups of the shreds into each quart bag and flattened them out so they would stack in the freezer.
I now have 5 bags of shredded zucchini in the freezer ready for all those recipes I tried over the last month! Yay!
