zucchini can be grated and added to just about anything; cakes, cookies, pancakes, meatloaf..............anything to get rid of the stuff.
EXCEPT this year our zukes failed!!! No, don't send me extras! I still have some frozen grated stuff in the freezer I'll either use or toss here this week. |
Yeah.. a neighbor gave us some corn she just plucked off the stalks along with a huge zucchini.
I am all thumbs in the kitchen, but I will try this recipe. Don is off grocery shopping so I asked him to pick up some Bisquick that we don't have. I do have a question though.. Is this type of loaf a dessert? Or like a bread? Or a meal? Do you slice it and put butter on it? Or put ketchup on it like a meat loaf? Do you eat it with your hands or a fork and knife? I have no idea when or how to serve it? |
With the eggs and Bisquik, I'm guessing it comes out like a cross between a quiche and a loaf. Bet you could cook it in an 8x8. Serve for lunch, bruch, light dinner, or side dish. I'd skip the ketchup and serve with salsa.
In fact I'd throw in green chile!!! With any new recipe it's best to make it and serve as a side until you decide you like it. |
Ahh the zuchini explosion....the good ole days....I miss not having ''real tomatoes or zuchini"....anyway a good recipe is this....
slice zuchini legnth wise...rub a little olive oil on it and grill for a few minutes...slice some tomatoes, lay on top...add slice of mozzerella cheese...close the grill till cheese melts.... this is a great veggie for grilled steak or chicken |
by end of summer my favorite recipe is :
Slice zucchini lengthwise. Feed to garbage disposer. |
My husband loves zucchini and always asks me to make bread like his grandmother did (except I don't have her recipe). I'll have to try this with a side. Don't have zucchini in the fridge right now, but all the other ingred. are always in the house! |
Well, I made it up and the guys actually ate it. They kind of smiled nicely and declined seconds, though. We put some enchilada sauce on it, as we had no salsa.
My 14 yr old son was quite interested in it. Said it was like an omlette, but more like bread. When he asked what it was called I said "zucchini loaf" and he stared at me and said, "Well there you go. You just ruined it". We left the last piece in the fridge for my older boy who wasn't home for supper. We can't tell him who made it...my non-cooking talents are well-known in my household. And I snuck a small piece to Bosley who gave it the thumbs up ( and that was tough for him to do!) |

What is it with guys? My brother absolutely adored a spaghetti sauce, wanting seconds and thirds. However when told it contained zucchini, he made a face. Now he asks, "Is that the zucchini sauce?" My favorite chocolate cake had saurkraut in it. Kept it moist and the kraut flavor was not noticed. No, I never told them I put saurkraut in their chocolate cake,......you think I'm nuts!? |
The recipe is called a casserole but I would call it more of a quiche type dish. You could serve it as a side dish or it would be good for a brunch also. I added a little more cheese than called for in the recipe because we both love cheese. |
I don't know what it is about men, but I also don't know what it is about women that requires them to hide distasteful ingredients in men's food. Let me tell you a fable:

My mom always had a response anytime we asked her about a dish that she thought we might not like the ingrediants for. The conversations went like this:
Family member: "Mom, what is that?" Mom: "It's food". We would get no more elaboration then that. it always worked, unless there was something recognizable in there that I knew I wouldn't want to eat, like cooked mushrooms or tomatoes. then I just picked around them. I use that statement myself now. We weren't allowed to be picky eaters at my house! |
Well, it failed the taste test with my 17 year old. He took a bite, said he didn't think he liked it, but took another taste just in case....and said "No thanks".
He left it on the table and we were in the living room and heard a crash. Bosley came down the hallway licking his lips....emply dish was over-turned on the floor. So much for my dog that NEVER counter-surfs! |
lol.....at least it didnt go to waste Has anyone ever tried mashed colliflower in mashed potatoes? I used to do that a lot when brians kids were little...completely hidden...and they loved them....now i just say "eat it or starve" |
I've made just plain old mashed cauliflower, but not in an attempt to hide them...Yum! |
