Tartine’s Zucchini and Orange Marmalade Tea Cake … as healthy as it gets
“Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.” Jim Davis Saw something stunning the other day – Zucchini & Orange Marmalade Tea Cake. The minute I saw it at Manggy’s No Special Effects, I could hear Ten in 10 yelling at the back of my head. Having made a Chocolate Zucchini Cake in the past, and the children not figuring that out was a gleeful experience. But I hardly ever make that one because of all the butter it takes to make the cake luscious and delectable. So when I read that Manggy had made this cake probably 4 times in nearly…

WARMING UP TO SOUP…TOMATO & ZUCCHINI with BAKED HERBED CROUTONS
“Soup puts the heart at ease, calms down the violence of hunger, eliminates the tension of the day, and awakens and refines the appetite.” Auguste Escoffier Just when we thought that winter was finally on it’s way out, it snowed in the hills up North, & the temperatures here in the plains plummeted. Shiver me timbers…brrrrrrrr…so back it was to slurping hot soup & being bundled into duvets again!

This time I tried a different one because I had zucchini & wondered how the zucchini would feel to…

Double Chocolate Zucchini Cake … a conspirator theory
“Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.” Jim Davis Have a question … CAN YOU CONSPIRE WITH ZUCCHINI? Are you like me, terrified of the mere thought of being discovered sneaking shredded greens into chocolate cake? Elle’s New England Kitchen post made me conspire. Some time back she made this Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread, swore her elder 2 into silence, & fed the cake to the other 2. No-one noticed anything amiss, zucchini was far from their minds. Mental note made when I read her post, ‘this I had to make’; though I was very underconfident, & had some extra conspiring…
