You may get more than you want, but there/s no rule saying you have to eat
them all. Throw the excess into the compost pile.

Don't compost them!! Expand your cooking horizons. This recipe for
Zucchini bread (actually a sweet cake loaf) is delicious, both warm and
cold, and no one will believe that it contains zucchini. Spread with
butter if eaten cold.

Zucchini Bread
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3 eggs
quarter teaspoon Baking Powder
1 level teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
2 & a quarter cups caster sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
3 teaspoons vanilla essence
1 cup walnuts
1 cup oil
2 cups grated zucchini
3 cups plain flour

Set oven at 180 deg C. Line 2 loaf tins. Beat eggs till light and
foamy. Add sugar, vanilla and oil. Beat till thick and mousse-like.
Stir in the grated zucchini.
Sift together flour,baking powder,salt,bicarb soda and cinnamon. Fold
this into the zucchini mixture with the roughly chopped walnuts.
Pour into tins and bake in pre heated moderate oven for 1- 1 and a half
hours or until cooked when tested with a skewer.

Use only tender fresh zucchini. (If large, peel and seed before
grating). Light maize, peanut or safflower oil give good results.
Stir in zucchini and don't beat.
