With the abundance of zucchini popping up in the garden this year I wanted to think outside the box and try a savory zucchini bread instead of a sweet one. It has been a hit! You can substitute yellow squash and it turns out just as delicious. A wonderful side for almost any meal, we even used it to make sandwiches, the consistency is perfect!
