You can water your plants with the juice for a nutrient boost to your soil.

Oh! What a clever idea! Thanks!

Freeze the zucchini juice into ice cubes and add it as a broth to soups and stews. It’s really good in soups and chili where the liquid cooks down or is just hidden and you get the same nutritional benefit as the rest of the zucchini. Also try a zucchini, ginger and lemon shot!! Good for the immune system

Thank you so much for these tips! What a great idea to save it for soups! 💡🍵

Thank you for this video. It was very helpful for me. I only started growing zucchini this year(prompted from another grower).

I like to use juices from veggies to cook rice with instead of plain water. I just measure it, put it in a ziplock, get out as much air as possible and freeze it flat.

That’s a great idea, thanks!

I just want to take a minute and appreciate how well your knife cuts up all that produce. Satisfied.

Thank you very much! I appreciate that and I am so glad you found it useful. It's never quiet around here, haha!

Very helpful video! Thank you for sharing!

Mix the juice in with your smoothies. Freeze the juice in cubes, throw in bag & freeze. Drop a few cubes in each time.

Great idea!

Thanks! My zucchini had just gotten going- I’m exited for it 😀

I like the idea of using the usually discarded juice for smoothies! Maybe it can be frozen in an ice cube tray. Great video, btw :)

Nice to hear your baby in the background :)

I do this, but I will put the 2 cups of zucchini in Food Saver (vacuum seal bags, squeezed flat, leaving room to seal the AFTER they are frozen. This way there in no moisture to interfere with the sealing of the bag. And it keeps for a long time.

@@TheCrunchyGinger I prepped and froze about 10 pounds of shredded zucchini today and 12 pounds of sliced zucchini and yellow & crookneck squash. Funny thing is I don't eat it. I grow it and prep it for my wife. She loves making it into casseroles. The shredded zucchini is for zucchini bread which I do like. I will also can it in wide mouth pint jars. it will store for quite some time like that.

I'm glad I watched your video. I've been freezing shredded zucchini without draining the water out. Now I know to do it your way. Thank you.

They say you can also take a straw to suck out the air.

Yes! Thanks for the tip! This works really well. I actually demonstrated it in my recent video for freezing snap peas 😂

You don't have to heat the zucchini in hot water then ice bath?

Great video and tips . Wished you showed us your baby .
