I made the other day some courgette and parmesan soup http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/italianstylezucchini_9833 with my home grown courgettes. I did not add as much oil as the recipe said and I added veg stock instead of chicken. I added a whole tub, 150ml, of cream instead of the 60ml the recipe said. It made a lovely soup which I shall be having for lunch for a few days.

I made some courgette and mushroom bread from a recipe I found on the internet. The taste was lovely but the dough was very wet when I made it and I added extra flour and left it in the oven for over an hour but the middle was still a bit wet. Because it tasted so nice I will use the rest with my soup but will toast it and may make croutons with it. Shall have a jig with the recipe and try to make a it again with a lot less liquid. So no bread recipe yet.
