Candy,
My cousin, Sandra and I call this the 2 Piece Cake. I have made and served it several times. Always have been asked for another piece or more. It doubles really well, just use a 9 x 13 pan.

Charles, once again I have to apologize. I made these bars for guests for supper tonight, and I cannot stop snacking. I really may have to take the extra lap around the block this evening. Sandra’s response: “Do we really have to share these?”

But let me tell you what I did…..after I realized 1/4 c. butter is not 1 stick (now how long have I been cooking?), I doubled the rest of the recipe. I only had one zucchini so I shredded an apple….also, I ground my whole (fresh, organic) cloves in my spice (aka coffee) grinder. Makes a world of difference. And baked it in a 9 x 13 pan. Talk about a happy accident.

And I made a test pitcher of Peach Tea for lunch…..I was informed by said cousin that I would be making another pitcher for company. Also, we use stevia instead of sugar, but it is still a very good tea.

The rest of the meal:
Baked Crock Pot Chicken
Steamed Broccoli with cheese sauce
Dinner salad with strawberries
Fresh baked Vermont Cheese bread (only I think Sandra only buys the cheese from Oregon.)

Will be looking forward to hearing about this week’s Farmer’s Market! Susan

Oops! Sorry, Charles, anything with a vegetable in the recipe title has to be good for you. Besides I believe anything fixed with love negates any bad effects. Susan

Oh Susan, let him think he’s eating healthy.

I agree, chocolate is a MAJOR food group! Memories from my 20s forbids me to think about tequila. I’ll drink a cup of spicy chocolate anytime.

Charles, Your stretching the veggie part there, but no worries, I believe chocolate is a food group, and tequila comes from an herb. Just depends on how you look at things! Susan

These zucchini bars taste a lot like carrot cake. I am surprised by how similar they are. I would never guess that the recipe has zucchini in it. At least when I eat two pieces I can claim there are vegetables inside

Hi! Jill, told Sandra the next time we were invited to her son’s for supper I would make the zucchini bars. Too dangerous to have around the house for the 2 of us….we have been doing weight wathers since the 1st of the year. And the people at work are getting fat, too. It’s the pits being a cook and having to worry about getting fat! Susan
