Sounds interesting.

that's one way of getting more greens

Never heard of this kind of cake. really would like to taste this before making it.

This is certainly different would like to taste it first as well.

The first time I heard of zucchini cake I thought the concept was gross but as it turns out, it's my favourite. I would be willing to try to this one, I'm sure it tastes great. Thanks for sharing willy!

I like zucchini bread but not sure I could handle spinach...uh ..no.

Ok, looks like u have a new job on your hands willy! You're going to have to bake it & pass it around to us Savelanders! :)

Yes willy- too bad you live so far away or we could all come and try it

use to love when family use get together would bring a dish of food.eat out side picnic table

I Had zucchini bread was good

I'm going to try this out--don't have a food processor but I do have a hand-held immersion blender that should do the trick. I'm thinking if I held off the vanilla, it would be nice with a tomato sauce on top.

rosebuddy- tell us what you think of it

this is an interesting recipe.

I don't know about this either! It would probably surprise me though.

It sounds like a basic white cake recipe with spinach added. Sorry willy, it doesn`t put my taste buds in overdrive.
