Here&#39;s a simple recipe which I might try next year:<br /><br />http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2007/06/eight-ball-zucchini-stuffed-with-rice.html<br /><br />The best thing about this particular variety is that it&#39;s quite a compact little plant, and doesn&#39;t spread all over like the other cucurbits.<br /><br />I&#39;d certainly recommend giving these a go next year, especially if you&#39;re stuck for space.Scenic Suffolkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17646647879166000810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463496755376001085.post-22097080992969148402010-08-22T10:24:41.115+01:002010-08-22T10:24:41.115+01:00Hi. Just came upon your blog and good to see how productive your veg patch is! I&#39;m interested - how did the Eight Ball taste? I considered growing some this year but chickened out so it&#39;d be good to hear what you thoughts about them.Petahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03269614153944571970noreply@blogger.com
