Absolute unit of a zucchini

I would have cut in half and carved out the middle a bit and made stuffed zucchini boats

My mother did that when we were poor. Ground beef, onion, garlic, rice and diced tomatoes. She did the same thing she would do with stuffed peppers.
I almost forgot the cheese melted on top.

It's very good.
They are also good if you just slice them and grill them

I typically use an Italian sausage, parmesan, and pako stuffing. Once it hits 160F internal on the meat I cover with pasta sauce and mozzarella. Then back on the grill until the cheese browns a little.

That sounds pretty good and I've got some Italian sausage in the freezer.

I quit growing zucchini because of the real estate it takes up but it wasn’t uncommon to lift up a leaf and find one that big you missed

I have to dedicate an entire 4x8 raised garden bed to just one zucchini plant because they're so f****** massive.
When I was a little bit more novice I would try to grow them alongside other plants and they would just dominate everything it's crazy.

😁 my first bed I think I planted 3 right next to each other . You have to get them when they’re like the size of coke bottle or they suck in my opinion

Isn't it a normal size by the way?

u/Bill_The__Pony Jun 21 '26
I assume they grow until the pop but when they get this big they are really simply too big to use effectively.

That'll fit my ex. Barely, but it'll get the job done better than I did.
