I like this bread because it's lighter and fluffier than most zucchini breads. Plus, it's a great way to put that abundant vegetable to good use!—Kevin Bruckerhoff, Columbia, Missouri

I have made this recipe for sometime. The only thing that I don't add is the lemon. Since it makes two loaves, I can make one without nuts and one with. Everybody has loved it.

I wanted to make this recipe healthier to encourage my kids to eat more vegetables. Instead of 2 c. sugar, I used 1c. splenda/sugar mix. Instead of 1 c. oil I used 1 c. applesauce + 1 T. oil, and a mixture of whole wheat flour and white flour. I used mini-loaf pans and the kids have gone CRAZY for this bread!!! I will make it again and again, using this healthy version!
