I’ve been making my zucchini into purée and adding it to pizza dough and breads. I want to make a zucchini pie next. Have you ever done a baked zucchini pie? Like pumpkin?
I love good things & I’m having a gastric sleeve next month so I really needed the nutritional info & you have supplied these. Thanks
I made the zucchini bread it was so amazing, not too sweet but super yummy and fudgy!
