Ingredients
3
medium zucchini
Instructions
Wash the zucchini, and cut off both ends. Spiralize, shred, or slice.
For spiralized noodles and sliced zucchini
Spread the zucchini in a single layer on a baking sheet, and freeze until solid.
Transfer to freezer containers or bags, removing as much air as possible.
For shredded zucchini
Place the zucchini into the middle of a clean tea towel, and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
Transfer to freezer containers or bags, removing as much air as you can. This works best if you measure out an even amount, like 1 cup or 2 cups.

Notes
You can do this with any amount of zucchini, as long as spiralized or sliced zucchini are kept in a single layer during the initial freeze.
