Whole Wheat Pumpkin, Carrot, Zucchini, Maple Walnut Bread Serves 8-12 Ingredients: 1 cup zucchini (shredded) 1 cup carrots (shredded) ½ cup coconut sugar 1/3 cup pumpkin puree ¼ cup maple syrup 1 tsp vanilla extract 2 eggs 1.5 cup whole wheat flour 1 cup walnuts (chopped, divided) 4 tsp baking soda 1 tsp cinnamon ½ tsp salt Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease one 9x5 inch loaf pan with canola oil or cooking spray. 2. In a large bowl, mix together zucchini, carrot, pumpkin, sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, and eggs. 3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon until combined. 4. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until well combined. Fold in walnuts, saving about ¼ cup for topping. 5. Pour batter into pan and top with leftover walnuts. Bake 70-80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cook for 10 minutes before removing from pan. Nutrition Tips: 1. If you have a walnut allergy or simply don’t love walnuts, substitute this ingredient for a different heart-healthy nut/legume such as almonds, pecans, or peanuts. 2. Using canola oil in place of butter or vegetable lard is one simply way to switch towards using more heart-healthy oils, rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats which may help reduce your LDL (bad) cholesterol and increase HDL (good) cholesterol. 3. This bread recipe freezes well. Consider doubling the recipe and freezing the second loaf.

THE LIFE OF A PUMPKIN - update #1 What kinds of vegetables do you like to eat? Do you have a favorite? Have you ever tried to grow a vegetable plant of your very own? It’s fun, and winter is a great time of year to start making garden plans to do just that! We’re starting a new STEAM project to track the life of a pumpkin throughout the coming growing season. Look for lots more information in the days ahead as we show you how to do it. You can follow our instructions and grow your own pumpkin right along with us, or you can just enjoy watching our efforts while we do all of the hard work. We’ll provide photo updates of our little project, The Life of a Pumpkin, in which we will document activities from the planning stages to fall harvest and everything in between. Please join us on this exciting and educational STEAM adventure! What is a pumpkin? Pumpkins are a type of squash, a tasty vegetable you’re probably familiar with. Squash are part of the genus (a large group of different but closely related, scientifically defined, plants and animals)Cucurbita, which also includes gourds. There are two types of squash, depending on the thickness of their skin: summer squash, which is picked before fully mature and while the skin is still thin and tender, and winter squash, which has a thicker, tougher skin and can survive cooler temperatures. Zucchini, crookneck, and pattypan are some of the many varieties of summer squash.

Bread is served in various forms with any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, and used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as sandwiches, and fried items coated in bread crumbs to prevent sticking. It forms the bland main component of bread pudding, as well as of stuffing designed to fill cavities or retain juices that otherwise might drip out. Bread has a social and emotional significance beyond its importance as nourishment. It plays essential roles in religious rituals and secular culture. Its prominence in daily life is reflected in language, where it appears in proverbs, colloquial expressions ("He stole the bread from my mouth"), in prayer ("Give us this day our daily bread") and in the etymology of words, such as "companion" (from Latin comes "with" + panis "bread"). 1.2 OBJECTIVE The Objective of this unit is to provide: 1.

Summer Squash and Zucchini History “Summer Squash” Is Typically Used to Describe a Yellow Squash Available During the Summer Months
Summer Squash and Zucchini History “Summer squash” is typically used to describe a yellow squash available during the summer months. Zucchini is a green type of summer squash-the most popular, in fact. It was created by natural mutation. Both of these squashes are soft shell, meaning that their skin, or peel, is soft and can be easily eaten, unlike a pumpkin. The skin contains the majority of the nutrition found in the squash. Zucchinis flower and their bloom is a preferred food in Mexico. The skin, seeds, and flesh can all be eaten whether raw or cooked. Summer squash grows on a bush or vine, unlike winter squash. Squash is originally found in Mexico and other portions of Central America. Ten thousand year-old summer squash seeds have been found in Mexican caves. Explorers such as Christopher Columbus brought squash back from North America and spread the vegetable around the world. In the United States, squash grows in California, Florida, Georgia, and New York. China, India, and Russia are also large squash contributors. American Indians called squash “askutasquash,” meaning “eaten raw.” French called green summer squash (zucchini) “courgette,” whereas the British refer to it as “vegetable marrow.” Varieties Crookneck describes a squash with a rounder “body” and bent “neck.” Straightneck describes a more cylindrical squash with a small and straight “neck.” Opo is a long, cylindrical squash with light green skin and mild-flavored, white flesh. Pattypan is disk shaped with scalloped edges and is known for having a buttery flavor. Scallopini is a smaller, green, toy-top shaped squash with a sweet and peppery taste.

Zucchini Darlene Christensen, Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Agent
R eviewed June 2020 Zucchini Darlene Christensen, Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Agent Did you know? • A serving of zucchini provides 30% of the recommended daily allowance of Vitamin C. • In Mexico the flower is preferred over the vegetable, and is often cooked in soups or used as a filling for quesadillas. • Biologically zucchini is considered a fruit – it is a swollen ovary of the female zucchini flower. SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF ZUCCHINI Select small and firm zucchinis, free of blemishes and decay. Their skin should be tender but firm with a glossy appearance. Avoid stale or over-mature squashes with dull surfaces because they usually have enlarged seeds and dry, stringy flesh. FREEZING For freezing, 1¼ pounds of fresh zucchini will equal about 1 pint frozen. One bushel (40 pounds) yields 32 to 40 pints frozen squash. Blanching Blanching is scalding of vegetables in boiling water or steam to slow or stop the action of certain enzymes. Before being picked enzymes cause vegetables to grow and mature. If vegetables are not blanched, or blanching is not long enough, the enzymes will continue to be active during frozen storage. This can cause off-colors, off-flavors and toughening. Blanching time is critical. Under-blanching speeds up the activity of enzymes and is worse than no blanching. Over-blanching causes loss of flavor, color, vitamins and minerals. Boiling Water Blanching Select young tender squash. Wash and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Blanch, cool and Blanch 3 drain. Package, seal and freeze. minutes The easiest way to blanch zucchini is in a large kettle of boiling water.

THE LIFE of a PUMPKIN - Update #3
THE LIFE OF A PUMPKIN - update #3 The days are getting longer, and spring is on the way. If you read our second update, you learned about plant hardiness zones and how to read a seed packet to figure out if it’s the right variety to plant in your area. We hope you picked out a nice pumpkin variety and now have your seeds on hand. Even if you aren’t planting this year, you can still follow The Life of a Pumpkin along with us. If you haven’t bought pumpkin seeds and still want to join us for this ongoing activity, get your seeds now! Many local plant nurseries and hardware stores sell seeds, but they may run out of certain varieties as other gardeners get ready for spring planting. Buy seeds intended for planting, not the kind you find in the snack aisle at your favorite grocery store. Pumpkin seeds are a tasty and healthy snack called pepitas. Pepitas are usually roasted and salted, like sunflower seeds that are also good for snacking. That means the seeds will not sprout and grow. Pumpkin seeds for planting Pumpkin seeds (pepitas) for snacking Seeds are self-contained little powerhouses of potential energy. They have everything needed for the growth and development of a new plant, all tucked safely inside. Seeds typically have 3 main parts: ▫ seed coat – layers that protect the seed from drying out or damage while it is dormant (not growing) ▫ cotyledon – the two halves of the seed that provide food (starch and protein) as the seedling starts to grow ▫ embryo – the part that grows into a plant Finding a warm spot to start your seeds Outside temperatures are still far too cold for our seeds, so we’ll need to start them indoors.

Instant Pot Pumpkin Spiced Spaghetti Squash
Instant Pot Pumpkin Spiced Spaghetti Squash After months of summer squash in just about every meal, I’m happy to move on to winter squash. Don’t get me wrong — I love zucchini in just about every way, but as the weather gets cooler, our food choices change, and right now, I’m all about winter squash. At the farmer’s market last weekend, there was a wide variety of squash (tip: if you want to try a different and interesting variety of winter squash, head to your farmer’s market, where you’ll always find more than just the usual acorn and butternut you see at the grocery store) and I picked up a few, including a spaghetti squash, which I don’t eat very often. After this meal, that may change however. I recently got an Instant Pot, which I’ve been putting off for a while, and this dish was one of the first few things I’ve cooked in it. Winter squash has never been one of my favorite foods to cook at home, mostly due to how heavy, tough, and unwieldy they are, so I usually either eat my squash out, or buy it prepped and ready to go. My Instant Pot totally changed that, and now I can’t wait to move on to the next one. This recipe is super simple, yet amazingly delicious. Once you’ve cooked the squash, you just scrape the noodles from the skin, and toss with a quick dressing of Ava Jane’s Kitchen Avocado Oil, cider vinegar and the Pumpkin Pie Spice blend I got from Ava Jane’s Kitchen.
