I make a delicious and simple zucchini soup that can be frozen. Sauté some garlic in olive oil, add large chunks of zucchini, stir for a few minutes, add salt and enough water to cover the zucchini and cook until zucchini become soft. Blend, and there is your soup. No need to add cream or anything else. The trick is to not put too much water, so it’s a thick soup. You can always add water if you don’t have enough, but too much water it will be watery and that’s difficult to fix. I like to serve the soup with the then slice or two of Parmesan.

Exactly! Zucchini ice cream - my jaw almost touched the ground. But love the idea. My fav ways to use up zucchini are cooking with lentils ( split yellow or red lentils) & make a spicy chutney out of it. I have the zucchini lentils with rice. And the chutney as a spread on warm pita sandwich with sliced onions, tomatoes & feta cheese.

Ooh, I love the chutney idea. Have to explore that with all the zucchini I have left!
