Zucchini Bread
From Elizabeth
I got this recipe off allrecipes.com. I did several changes and it was still yummy. I used 2 cups white flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour. I only had 2 eggs, 1/2 cup oil and 1/2 cup applesauce. I grated the zucchini with the large grate and used a little over 3 cups. 1 cup white sugar and 1 cup brown sugar. No nuts. I cooked it 45 mins, maybe should do longer.
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 1/4 cups white sugar
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups grated zucchini
1 cup chopped walnuts
Grease and flour two 8 x 4 inch pans. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Sift flour, salt, baking powder, soda, and cinnamon together in a bowl.
Beat eggs, oil, vanilla, and sugar together in a large bowl. Add sifted ingredients to the creamed mixture, and beat well. Stir in zucchini and nuts until well combined. Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake for 40 to 60 minutes, or until tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on rack for 20 minutes. Remove bread from pan, and completely cool.

Creamy Corn Chipotle Dip
Creamy Corn Chipotle Dip
Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 15 min
Cooking Time: 0 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Everyone needs a simple dip recipe in their collection for summer BBQs, picnics or pool parties. This one’s creamy and sweet with just a touch of spice.
Ingredients
4 oz fat-free cream cheese
2 items canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, seeded
3 cup frozen corn kernels, or fresh corn kernels*
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp table salt
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a food processor fitted with the chopping blade; pulse a few times, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and process until smooth. To store, spoon into a medium bowl, cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 days; return to room temperature before serving. Yields about 3 tablespoons per serving.
Notes
*When in season, use fresh corn kernels for the best flavor. To remove the kernels, break each cob in half. Stand a half on its flat end and run a sharp knife along the cob, slicing off the kernels.
We prefer the flavor of this recipe a day after it’s been made. Leave the corn somewhat chunky if you prefer.
