Tasty Treat Tuesday: Lemon Zucchini Loaf with Lemon Glaze

I am not a huge fan of zuchini by itself, but I absolutely love any kind of zucchini bread!  This recipe looks so yummy and moist and the glaze will jsut make it that much better.  I am drooling just thinking aobut it.  Thanks for the recipe Nancy Creative!

Here’s what you need to make this:

  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • Juice of 1 lemon (or 2 Tablespoons lemon juice)
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 cup grated zucchini

Here’s how to make it -> Lemon Zucchini Loaf with Lemon Glaze Tutorial

 

Aldi deals for the week of 4/29-5/5

Thanks to Coupon Clippin Daddy for this week’s deals.

If you are new to shopping, at Aldi’s, here’s their coupon policy: or lack there-of since they don’t actually take coupons!

  • Aldi’s does not take coupons of any kind.
  • At Aldi’s, you will have to bag your own groceries and pay a quarter to get a cart. The quarter is reimbursed when the cart is returned.
  • You’ll need to bring in your own reusable grocery bags or you’ll have to purchase them in the store.

Here are some of the Aldi’s highlights for the week:  remember to check out Coupon Clippin’ Daddy for the rest of the deals!  It’s hard to judge what a “good deal” is since cost of living varies so much in various parts of the country, but these are all “good deals” by my standards in a low to moderate cost of living area
