In search of

Gluten free zucchini bread recipes. I'm desperate! Please leave me links or recipes in the comments. (Note: Sadly, no bananas or pineapple for me.)

In past years, I always had a freezer full of (glutenized) zucchini breads. I need to make the switch.

In Indiana, if you walk up to a friend's house carrying a basket of zucchini they will lock their doors and pretend they're not home. Zucchini bread, however, is always welcome.

    I hope you like it. I'm going to make it today. I haven't made it since last summer.

    I had similar situations as you where several people, out of the blue would bring up Celiac disease. I took awhile for me to get it though, but your right we should listen to our bodies. I am much better than I was in the past but still not 100% like I would like to be. I keep telling myself I need to keep a food diary. I have a feeling there are other foods that trigger reactions. I'll have to work on that.
    Thanks for the encouragement.

    I have to limit myself to one or two zucchini or yellow squash plants a year to avoid overload. Your tomatoes look great, Kay!

    I use the Zuchinni Bread recipe out of "Gluten-Free Quick and Easy" by Carol Fenster, and it is yummy.
