yummy recipes

I have two great recipes that I wanted to share with you. We have had so many Zucchini this year and have really enjoyed this bread recipe. Also the other one is a bean salad or salsa. We always serve it with chips. It is so easy and SO good. It is great to take to a picnic or to a big gathering.

Zucchini Bread
1 C. sugar (I use half white half brown)
2 eggs
1/2 C. oil (I use half applesauce)
1 C. grated zucchini
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 C. flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. baking powder
1 C. chocolate chips

Beat eggs, beat in sugar. Stir in oil, zucchini, and vanilla. Add dry ingredients. Add chocolate chips. Bake at 350 for 1 hour. Cool in pan for 10 minutes.

Shakespeare's Salad
1 can black beans
1 can black eyed peas
1 C. frozen corn
1-2 diced green peppers
1-2 diced red peppers
3 diced tomatoes
3-4 green onions
2 cloves minced garlic
3/4 C. diced cilantro (I hate this and never add it)
1 bottle Italian dressing ( I have used Newmans and something else and Newmans is the best)

drain beans, chop remaining ingredients, mix in dressing and serve with chips

YUMMY!
