Favorite Zucchini Recipes

How are your garden’s doing this year? Mine are struggling a little bit this year with all of the extreme heat here in Utah. I am praying my tomatoes start to grow or I will be devastated. Thankfully, no matter how the rest of my garden is doing, I still have zucchini coming out of my ears! I thought I would share with you some of my favorite zucchini recipes that make this delicious vegetable worth eating…for breakfast, dinner or dessert!

Let’s start with zucchini bread. Many recipes for zucchini bread is dry, flavorless and not worth the calories. I love our recipe for Chocolate Zucchini Bread, but I think I have finally perfected the cinnamon, more traditional version of zucchini bread. What I did was I took my mother in laws AMAZING banana bread recipe and just swapped out the banana for zucchini, added some cinnamon & a few cinnamon chocolate chips. It worked perfectly and was buttery, sweet, moist & delectable! Want a healthier version? The second time I made this I used 1/2 of the butter amount with pureed white beans and I even liked it better! It was still just as moist, but stayed even a little more light & fluffy–all with half the fat. Bonus!
