zucchini, n.Definitions

A Zucchini is a grilling cucumber

Zucchini is a vegetable which can be baked, boiled, fried or steamed before kids refuse to eat it.

Zucchini is a troublesome vegetable in that one cannot grow just one. Minutes after one plants a single seed, hundreds of zucchini will barge out of the ground and sprawl around the garden, menacing the other vegetables. At night, one can hear the ground quake as more and more zucchinis erupt.
