Zucchini Week!

Who knew that you could make so many delicious recipes with zucchini?  I haven't used zucchini much in the past but must admit that I am now a huge fan of this green vegetable!   I bought some zucchini last weekend and told my husband to shred 1.5 cups for a chocolate chip zucchini bread I wanted to make. He ended up shredding the entire bag which filled an entire freezer bag full.  So, I decided that I wasn't going to let all of this go to waste and that we would have a zucchini filled week and if my kids didn't like it....blame it on daddy:)  So far, I've made the low-fat chocolate chip zucchini bread (twice) http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/07/low-fat-chocolate-chip-zucchini-bread.html, angel hair, zucchini and tomatoes http://www.skinnytaste.com/2008/06/angel-hair-with-zucchini-and-tomatoes-5.html, zucchini turkey burgers http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/05/turkey-burgers-with-zucchini.html and zucchini pizza!  I found all of these recipes on http://www.skinnytaste.com/with the exception of the zucchini pizza which I made tonight.  For this, I sautéed garlic, onions and zucchini and put all of this underneath the cheese and on top of the sauce on a whole wheat pita. It was delicious and my kids hardly knew it was there!
