I was just searching Cooks.com for information on roasting zucchini, and found this recipe... The name is a bit, um, interesting, but it sounds SOOOO good that I had to share it. I wonder if we could use a skillet cake and turn it into a demo...

I'm still trying to figure out what this recipe has to do with roasting zucchini?:D

Hm, I think it was a featured recipe in a separate box on the page... I didn't even think it was odd that I found it when searching for roasted zucchini! I just was so excited to try it!!! Ooh, I remember - there was a box for recently viewed recipes. My guess would be that this one is viewed A LOT! :blushing:

And Susan, as for the roasted Zucchini - I had actually already marinated it, with the original intention of grilling it. But the weather turned dark, and I didn't feel like breaking out the George Foreman, so I was really looking for roasting time. And to top it off, I have a chicken in the over an 350, and all the recipes I was finding were for 425!

Anyway, I ended up throwing it in for about 45 minutes at 350. The marinade I used was 1/2 cup Garlic Oil, 1/2 cup lemon juice, 2 T soy sauce, and 3C of garlic (for 6 small zucchinis that I sliced with the crinkle cutter UM blade). I will let you know how it turns out!!
 
need a different nameMy hubby saw this and wants to make it for the men's dessert contest for our church picnic on Sunday. I can't imagine our Pastor 'and second place to Jason with Sex in a pan!'

lol

I think this could definitely be turned into a demo using a skillet cake. It would be a unique and delicious way to showcase the versatility of our products. I'm excited to give it a try and share it with my customers. Thanks again for sharing! Happy cooking!

To make the Skillet Cake, you will need fresh zucchini, flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Optional ingredients include nuts or chocolate chips for added flavor and texture.
