Recently my mom bought 2 huge zucchinis from the night market near our house. I had mentioned zucchinis before and she got the impression that I wanted them and since they were cheap that day, she went ahead and bought them. I am thankful of course, but I then thought what am I gonna do with 2 huge zucchinis?
I thought about ratatouille and I wasn't really creative about it. I even considered a zucchini stirfry or salad. In the end my mom thought of the idea to make zucchini bread. I was glad she thought of that before the zucchinis went bad.
So yesterday my mom made the zucchini bread. It is more of a sweet loaf rather than a bread. It was so good straight out of the oven. It was pretty simple to make, and I think it is quite nutritious. Not all the time do you get to have vegetables in bread, and I get to have had my fibre without tasting it! Couldn't really taste the zucchini but still really yummy!
It is good with butter too! And it had walnuts to give it a crunch. I am glad my mom cut down the sugar slightly and it was a good zucchini bread. There is some zucchini left over and I hope my mom will think of something soon for the rest of the zucchini!
