Zucchini Flowers

Yesterday my awesome friend and extremely knowledgeable nutritionist reminded me that I can eat the flowers of my zucchini plants. You should have seen the look on my husband's face when I told him we were having zucchini flowers for dinner. Anyway, these babies turned out totally delicious. I can't wait to make more. I just breaded them with some sprigs of fresh rosemary and sage from my herb garden and fried them with a bit of olive oil. I served them up with a salad (lettuce from our garden) topped with avacado, yellow pepper, hemp seed nuts and pecans. It was a wonderfully light dinner for a hot, hot day. This morning I was going to bake something with the large zucchini gifted to me, however it is so hot here already that there is no way anybody sane would turn on their oven (unless they had air conditioning of course).
