Zucchini is the garden's gift that keeps on giving . . . and giving . . . and, well, enough already. We love the bright orange blossoms peeking out from under the vines, and get excited by the first squash, and then, after we've eaten about 30 of them, we run out of ideas on how to prepare them. So today and tomorrow I'm featuring a couple of recipes that will make you fall in love with those omnipresent veggies all over again.

Blogger everybodylikessandwiches keeps it simple, with her recipe for this pasta dish. She uses sliced baby zucchini, which she sautés in olive oil with garlic, chili flakes and fresh peas, then mixes in salty crumbled feta and fragrant basil and mint leaves. And a squeeze of lemon makes it pop.
