Our courgettes have been rather small during the heatwave and drought we experienced in June and July. August has bought rain in downpours and suddenly the courgettes are producing again.
On Sunday I harvested courgettes big and small.
Sunday’s courgette harvest
Not bad for one picking. I roasted the large one for our Sunday dinner topped with a little cheese sauce. The rest I cooked and put in the freezer.
Some I cooked and topped with cheese sauce and some I cooked with garlic and sun dried tomato puree. I have got quite good at finding different ways to use courgette. It looks like there will be many more to come yet.

Very nice
We are quite enjoying them after the earlier slow down.
We call those zucchini in California. And zucchini bread is one of my all time favorite things. Most recipes call for two cups of grated zucchini and the last recipe I made also called for 4 eggs. So a win win in my book.
That sounds like an amazing recipe which I will look up. I am trying to come up with my own recipes but always open to new ones.
