We have a garden overflowing with zucchini right now. I picked these huge suckers today, and we have 5 more sitting in the kitchen. I'm not a huge vegetable fan, so the thought of eating lots of zucchini doesn't seem too appetizing to me. Last night I made Orange-coconut zucchini bread and the night before I made japanese zucchini and onions. Both recipes were very tasty. So if anyone wants a zucchini recipe, here are two good ones:
Japanese Zucchini & Onions - I didn't have sesame seeds, so I put in a bit of sesame oil and also added some minced garlic
Orange-Coconut Zucchini Bread:
Mix well:
3 eggs
1 cup oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup orange sugar (1 cup of sugar mixed w/zest of 1 orange)
Add:
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
Add:
2 cups shredded zucchini
3 cups flour
1 cup coconut
Bake 325 degrees for 55-60 minutes
Glaze with mixture of pwd sugar and juice from orange
