We really love a good spinach dip and there are many versions out there that are delicious. Since zucchini and yellow squash are abundant at this time of the year, I decided to adapt my recipe by including shredded or finely diced zucchini. It seems to be a hit. I have been making canning zucchini pickles, chow-chow and other relishes, as well as baking breads and cakes, so that these versatile veggies would not go to waste.
