Chuck's Zucchini
It was often joked that Chuck Williams had come up with more than a hundred different ways to cook zucchini, so widespread did they overrun people's gardens. This is one of the easiest. It originally called for a Mouli Julienne, a hand-cranked shredder that was a popular import from France. Of course since the time he wrote this recipe, the food processor has superseded the hand-powered tool in the speed with which it can shred great quantities of vegetables.
