I put together this. 
I thought it was pretty yummy, and Kiera ate two bowls. Melia did ok, but said there was a flavor that made her tongue unhappy. It had yellow squash from Shaun's house, lemon cucumber, zucchini and cherry tomatos from our garden, plus corn and carrots. I added Italian dressing for flavor. The next day Kiera literally took 6 hours to eat her one bowl, and Melia was gagging on whatever flavor that was :-) But by the time she was done, I had convinced her that she liked it. And when Kiera finally finished hers, she had a smile on her face. It's interesting just how much one takes from the other, and how much of eating "new" things is mind over matter. Not to say that I will convince myself to eat anything exotic, but when I know I "should" like it, it sure helps to do a little mental reprogramming :-)

They were yummy, but Gabe reminded me that he doesn't like chocolate... Sometimes I get so excited about making goodies that I forget he doesn't like chocolate goodies! Even Ghiradelli dark chocolate chips... (swoon..) Next time I think I'll try a batch of zucchini raspberry or huckleberry muffins. Because we ARE going picking. THIS summer. It IS going to happen.

Karston LOVES Zucchini and would eat steamed zucchini every day with every meal if I let him. The darn bugs keep getting to my one plant though and it is really driving me crazy. Do you have this problem? I've been able to pick 2 smaller size zucchini's and Karston was sad he had to share with Makaila, especially because she doesn't like it and I make her eat it. :-)
Zucchini Berry bread sounds wonderful...let me know how it turns out and share the recipe if it's good. :-D
So sad Gabe doesn't like chocolate. I LOVE Chocolate, chocolate chip zucchini bread. (recipe is on my blog) Now I'm gonna have to make some.
