We've been talking about getting a chest freezer for our basement forever, we just haven't gotten around to it. Surely would help with all the summer surplus!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04797891349059780209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001009691717585095.post-14948481006904599072011-08-07T18:55:09.542-04:002011-08-07T18:55:09.542-04:00Oh!

I should also mention that we do NOT have a large freezer and freeze bags upon bags of berries, too...but the bags of shredded zucchini barely take up any room, so no need to worry about taking up too much precious freezer space.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001009691717585095.post-20236529707915021662011-08-07T18:50:23.738-04:002011-08-07T18:50:23.738-04:00We froze a ton of ours last summer (and will this ...We froze a ton of ours last summer (and will this summer) and used it for bread and chocolate zucchini cake all year long. It was so nice to pull it out of the freezer and whip up a loaf of bread in the middle of winter. I just shredded it in the food processor, tossed the amount needed for bread in a ziplock, labeled it and tossed it in the freezer. The same thing, but larger quantities for chocolate zucchini cake (if it has zucchini in it, it must be good for you, right?)! When I took it out of the freezer, I cut a tiny hole in the corner of the bag and drained out a little bit of the water after it was done defrosting. Just don't get rid of all the water, otherwise the bread/cake won't turn out as moist as with fresh zucchini.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
