Zucchinni Bread

When Austin was younger he was a great eater and would pretty much eat anything you put in front of him or near his mouth...and by most people's standards I guess he still is a pretty good eater for a 16 month old. But ever since he got old enough to have an opinion, he will not touch a vegetable with a ten foot pole. So I have learned a few tricks on how to hide them in foods I know he likes, like bread. Here is a perfect example. Zucchini bread may sound kind of weird but it is really delicious and a great way to get kids to eat a vegetable without them knowing!

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
