My dads current new craze which he made up - chop them into small pieces, flash fry in a pan with olive oil, red onion, paprika and fresh coriander. Yum yum yum.

I love courgettes... especially home grown ones.... What I have done alot this year as I have grown quite a few is just slice them fairly thinly, spray a flat baking tray with some oil / 1 cal spray, lay the slices om the tray, spray again with 1 cal oil spray, sprinkle some salt on and bake for 25-30 mins at 180-200C... they become soft and taste delicious... I often eat them as they are or add them to cous cous or rice with other things... fresh herbs / green lentils / baked peppers / spring onions and salad stuff.... Yummy!! Quick and simple.......

Weight watchers do a 'no point' soup with courgettes, if I get time before my holidays I'll put the recipe up. Its vegan and lovely, cheap and very filling.

i make a mediterran-ish tuna thing with mine. tuna, can of chopped tomatoes, a chopped pepper, some olives, herbs and chilli flakes (red wine if you have some) and a dash of lea and perrins and sliced courgettes. I heat mine for a couple of hours in the slow cooker but it works ok in a pan too. then serve in a bowl with crusty bread and some grated cheese on the top

How about (and i'm just making this up off the top of my head, so it might not work or be disgusting!) cutting them in half length ways, scooping out the inside and mixing with cheese, onion and anything else kicking about in the fridge then putting the mixture back in the shell and grilling. Like i said not sure if it will work!

Get the courgettes, peel off think strips with a potato peeler, season with salt, pepper and chilli flakes (after tossing with olive oil) and either a) eat raw (if they are very young and fresh) or flash fry. Yum. Or you could always try a courgette fritatta with all those eggs you've got! :) Or make a batter and deep fry chunks and serve with some sort of sour cream dip.......I'm on a roll here!
