Zucchini Stir Fry!

It's green so I threw it in there! Very good! I am really finding out how versatile this veggie is! (just an aside, the egg roll was not so yum) I did not enjoy eating zucchini bread for a week and a half straight though...I'm over it for the moment and the rest of the muffins are chillin' in the freezer.



More Zucchini Bread (With Banana)

I keep forgetting to take a picture of my zucchini breads! And this one was better than the first! Here's the recipe. I cut out the brown sugar and used 1/2 cup of honey instead of 1/4 cup, and used whole wheat flour instead of the pastry flour. I thought this recipe might end up mushy because of the banana and zucchini but it didn't, very good! I think I needed to cook it longer than it suggested though.

Catch-up (not Ketchup)


We're taking advantage of this repeat month by posting things we made using secret ingredients from past months but didn't post the pictures of because we're lazy. Sue us. Actually, we don't have pictures of eggs/breakfast from March (though we totally made stuff), beer from April (we used dark beer to deglaze the pan after cooking down onions for chili), or bananas from May (we made the oatmeal-banana-peanut butter-chocolate bread everybody sampled at Dad's birthday). So it isn't that much of a catch-up. We'll try to do better. Also, there's a zucchini entry in here, so there.

#1 - Soup (January)

This was a split-pea soup we made. The croutons were made from beer bread we'd made apparently in anticipation of beer month, pictures of which were on Lisa's phone, but since we got new ones, are now gone. (I swear I took a picture of the beer bread—it was all bubbly and yummy looking with all the butter!)





#2 - Zucchini (June) 

Sun dried tomato and zucchini risotto.  It was pretty fancy and Alex actually found that he liked the zucchini it! In the picture just below, we did some summer tofu grillin' and had leftover risotto on the side.

Zucchini

I'll do more zucchini this month but I wanted to link back to what I'd already made! I posted zucchini pancakes on my other blog. Click here to see them. I've also been using my regular banana bread recipe and just substituting the zucchini for the banana.

July: more Zucchini?

I propose we extend Zucchini into July since I bought some but haven't gotten a chance to make anything, yet.
