I can never make decisions on what recipe to put on here-so this time I have given you two zucchini breads. Two of my children do not like zucchini squash, but will eat it in chocolate zucchini bread. Hope you enjoy it.

I use zucchini in recipes quite often Martha especially muffins (in the UK we call zucchini courgettes) I like the idea of the dates and chocolate in the second recipe
Thank you for the shopping tips on Monday

I don't grow zucchini myself, but I have friends who keep me supplied. I'll try these recipes when they're in season. Especially the chocolate zucchini bread. It sounds delicious.
Doreen
Thank you, Doreen. Martha is putting on some recipes before the fruits and vegetables are grown so people will have them ahead of time.
Give them something different to make.

For a small family-1 or 2 people, 2zucchinisare plenty...for pickles, and for casseroles, on pizza....and of course bread! Some cakes use it too. It has no flavor really...but it provides moisture and bulk in cooking.When the season is over...and we have a few left, I go ahead and grate them..in portions, what I think I'll need for bread thru the winter, cakes, pizza toppings,casseroles. And I wrap them well and tight and mark what each package is for....and put them in the freezer,I can pull out fresh zuccini any time in the winter to early spring for use....does not diminish the quality of it.These breads are a nice hearty bread.
Good Morning SueAnn,
Thank you with your suggestions. I am sure that will help some of us.
