Yes, you can freeze it - just grate what you would use in your recipe, seal it in a ziploc bag & place in your freezer. You can also chop it up for soup recipes and freeze those portions for use later. Make up a batch of ratatouille and freeze it for later.
You could also make zucchini cupcakes and freeze the cupcakes for later.... or make smaller loaves and freeze them after they cool. When you take your breads out of the freezer, let them defrost in the bag. Don't open the bags or they could dry out (it won't get soggy at all).
I've never canned zucchini (I usually freeze them) but you could do that, too ... either plain or pickled. Hope this helps!
Thank you very much Karen. That answers my questions perfectly and bonus info too! I needed it. I don't want to waste a thing. I don't know what Ratatouille is....besides a movie!
I think I will do both, freeze some grated and make some cupcakes to freeze too. I also love the size of the mini loaves too. Darling little nibbles to give away.
Thanks again! Stephanie
