Freezing Shredded Zucchini

I seem to miss the occasional zucchini in my garden and it gets really BIG before I find it.  I like to use these in recipes that call for shredded zucchini.  Here’s how I freeze the shredded zucchini to use later.

Wash, and cut up zucchini.

Slice ZucchiniThen, shred it in your food processor.

Shredded ZucchiniMeasure it.  I freeze mine in 2 cup quantities because my favorite recipe uses 2 cups of shredded zucchini.

When you defrost it, it is a bit watery, but I just put the whole thing into my recipe and it turns out just fine.

Thanks! I’ll be freezing a bunch tomorrow.

I just shredded my last two zucchinis…and they were giant. I made two loaves of zucchini, nut & cranberry bread…but must have about 6 cups of shredded zucchini left. Thanks for the tip – and confirmation that this can be done!
