You can blend the zucchini peel and all for bread, but on an older zucchini the peel can add some unwanted bitterness.

How do you grow zucchini vertically?
They will creep upwards, as a vine. Just keep an eye on them and fix them gently to a nearby tree or frame if it seems necessary. They'll head upwards for the sun. I have pumpkins, planted by passing birds, which simply crawl up trees growing where the vines have to climb to reach the sunlight. They do this without any help from me, and against all probability produce huge heavy fruit which doesn't fall to the ground under its own weight. If it works for pumpkins, it has to work for zucchini. People have told me creeping plants prefer to do their own thing rather than be tied to a frame. I cannot vouch for this, but I do know our pumpkins are the biggest and heaviest I've seen. So if you have trees with trunks out of the sun, plant the zucchini at their base and the vine should head on up.
