Zucchini Loaf


Friends of mine came over today for Family Day and brought along their recipe for zucchini loaf. I have never eaten a savoury loaf before so I was eager to try. I imagined something like banana bread or carrot cake but with green bits instead. I even asked my friend how much sugar we needed and was a bit taken back when she said there was none. Ok...and then came the cheese and I totally didn't know what to expect. As we mixed everything together I wondered to myself how tasty could this dish be...it didn't look anything like banana bread.


As it cooked these delicious aromas wafted through the kitchen and my mouth began to water. When it came out of the oven it looked really yummy but I was still hesitant about this "loaf". Cutting into it felt too soft to be bread-like and when I took my first bite I was pleasantly surprised. It tasted more like quiche than a loaf. It was absolutley delicious!! I couldn't get enough. It was so easy and so yummy I'm going to make this one of my usual dishes.
Here's the recipe from my website:

  1. Hi,
    Sounds like a yummy recipe, however, I must ask if your children liked it as I have 3 very young children who seem to only like junk food.

  3. Hi. The review from them was mixed. My oldest son whom I didn't expect to like it actually didn't mind it and the other two didn't even want to try. I think if your kids like eggs they will like this. You might want to substitute the onion with something like cooked broccoli.

  4. I always love the idea of savoury loaf. Hmmm maybe replace everything green with fried cut up hot dogs or bacon bits hehe (evil)
