Recipes that use Zucchini and taste great!

Zucchini-Banana Squares , definitely rated a 5 star overall - Yum...

It's called Einkorn Berry Crisp from Farmhouse on the Boone.  After I wrote up this post, I saw that I had tagged the recipe once before, so I apparantly made it before ha ha!  Oh my.  I also used monkfruit vs coconut sugar t...
