The first day was:
Zucchini brownies (minus the frosting) from prevention rd
http://www.preventionrd.com/2012/07/whole-wheat-frosted-zucchini-brownies/
They ate half the batch (hubs took half to work otherwise I'm sure they would have eaten them all
The next day was zucchini muffins

Day 3
Was zucchini bread (I made these in pbj sandwiches)
http://www.food.com/recipe/zucchini-bread-bread-machine-434712 (minus walnuts and raisins - I didn't have them)
And today I have no eggs but a boy who walks in with "I'm hungry"
So I googled vegan zucchini oatmeal cookies and couldn't find any... So I googled vegan oatmeal cookies and found
Alicia Silverstein's kind diet oatmeal cookies (should have just looked in my cookbook duh)
I didn't have all the ingredients listed so I changed them and made them into bars (because taking cookies in and out of the oven sounds about as much fun to me as getting a root canal)... The 3 year old ate 3 for breakfast. The 6 year old is still sleeping. But hubs agrees with Aaron these are great! And I will say they smell amazing!
Without further adieu here they are:
Vegan oatmeal zucchini bars
which I changed from:

ReplyDeleteZucchini hummus is fabulous and uses a lot of zucchini and it freezes well, too.
Do you have a dehydrator? I eat so many dried zucchini chips in the summertime it is kind os sick. I dip them in the aforementioned zucchini hummus too. I'm surprised I'm not green.
