Subject: I got zucchini coming out of my ears!!!

My uncle gave us a brown grocery bag of zukes last week. My aunt called on Monday and said she hoped we wanted some zucchini cause her fridge was full of them!! so now I got about 4 x-large and 8 medium zukes. other than the grill, saute or fried what can I do with them? any ideas?

You can lower the calorie count and sugar level of that bread by substituting Splenda for the sugar. Just follow their simple substitution instructions. Here is the site.

I hope I got that right. If not, just go to Splenda.com and look for their cooking & baking tips. I use Splenda in my pumpkin bread recipe--works great.

I usually do use Splenda but these weren't for me. My hubby and son love them. But son doesn't tolerate the Splenda to well. So I just stay away from those treats.

I just found this site. My DH is diabetic and always looking for things to make. I take zucchini cut it up in bite size pieces and add canned DelMonte tomatoes with garlic and basil and simmer until zukes are tender. You can also add tomatoes and use your favorite spices. This also freezes well. Glad to have found this site. Have a great day.
