Yup, yellow and green are both zucchini.

Here it's rat-a-p'tooie... was gonna make some today but by tomorrow I
will have again the amount I picked yesterday so I will wait and do a
huge amount... no exact recipe, just clean out the fridge. Next lower
default is grilled, if I happen to be grillin'. I don't care for
steamed squash, too bland and a texture like baby food. I don't steam
veggies, that method of cooking extracts a lot of the nutrients, if
you comsume that liquid okay, but most everyone dumps it down the
drain. I prefer cook veggies in stoups. Large zukes are good sliced
into slabs, floured, dipped in egg wash, lightly dredged in seasoned
crumbs and pan fried... can even do a caserole of zuke parm.
