Use them in any way you would any other summer squash--and I am very jealous. . .
every time I try to grow the pale, green, traditional pattypan squash, they die a miserable death, or I fail to get but one or two squashes.
Now this ONE dang green zuchinni I was given (it was a volunteer from last year's crop), is growing like a weed. I get enough every couple of days to eat (for three of us)--and that is picking them hand-length! AND I have not watered the thing in weeks and it has been HOT down here!
I love pattypan squash. I cook 1/2 inch slices just till they are first starting to turn translucent, then quickly drain and let them set for 5-10 minutes to cook on their own retained heat. A tiny bit of butter and some salt and pepper and I eat 'em up.

Southern fried
Slice, dip in seasoned flour, then beaten egg, then cornmeal. Pan fry.

Grate them up and make zucchini bread or zucchini patties and fry in evoo.
Zucchini bread will come in handy for the upcoming holidays. Be sure to put fresh lemon juice in those zuke patties and basil from your garden!
And make this very delicious soup, which I have made so many times. It freezes very well, I always have it in my freezer for healthy lunches or dinner when I do not want to cook.
