1 zucchini...

2 zucchinis, 3 zucchinis, 4.

I made zucchini bread (muffins, actually, because I couldn't find a loaf pan) last night, and knocked out 1 zucchini. I substituted a few ingredients to make them a little less unhealthy. I subbed unsweetened organic applesauce for 1/2 the oil, and used 1/2 whole wheat / 1/2 all-purpose flour. Now I need to find a suitable sub for the 3 cups of sugar! Splenda for Baking, maybe?

Zucchinis rank right up there with bananas on my DO NOT LIKE list. I have to say I much prefer zucchini bread to banana bread! I would make these again, maybe next time with some mini chocolate chips. Mmm...chocolate...

Last night for supper we had turkey breasts simmered in Trader Joe's Thai green curry sauce, with orzo and baby carrots for sides. Big Girl slept through supper, and it's a good thing she did. The sauce certainly has a kick! The adults thought it was good, though, with a subtle sweetness from the coconut milk, the flavors of lemon grass and cilantro, and a chili pepper punch.

On the menu for tonight was spaghetti and homemade meatballs with a vegged-up sauce (trying to get rid of more zucchini before it goes bad). However, I used up the rest of the eggs last night making muffins, so that meal will have to wait. Instead, I think we'll have stuffed sole (Omaha Steaks) with herb roasted potatoes and a veg of some kind (Big Girl is liking cooked carrots right now, so that's a possibility).

And to make this more interesting, I'll try to start taking pictures.

Maybe that will hold me accountable for a nice presentation, rather than just slopping it on a plate!
