I have made 2 loaves of zucchini bread already with this zucchini and I still have 1/3 left!
We also enjoyed a fresh pizza with home grown tomatoes, onions, and farmers market green bell peppers. YUM.

Onions & Carrots & Tomatoes, Oh My!
We have been enjoying the fruits of our garden. We have zucchini, banana peppers, carrots, onions and tomatoes ripening these last few weeks. This carrot was an interesting shape. I think it was trying to multiply. I also did some research on eating carrot greens because they are so abundant and seem a waste to throw in the compost. Here is what I found on eating carrot tops, and also recipes to try. They seem to be very nutritious! and bitter... so they need to be used in something.

Wow! That pizza looks awesome! I wonder if your soil is compacted? That can sometimes explain why carrots remain short and sometimes grow arms.
I'd love a bite of that pizza right now.
That pizza looks so good! Have you tried a few sprinkles of carrot tops on a salad? I wonder if they are good cooked?
Oh, another idea for the usually discarded parts of veggies is to lump them all together in a pot and make vegetable broth. I've tried it a couple of times. I think it's easiest to freeze it.
