Pineapple and zucchini cake
An odd combo when you think about it - but it works well. Will post the recipe when Susie sends it along. Thanks Susie for bringing it over - it was delicious and I could almost eat the whole loaf!

Minestra Zucchina Siciliana - as everyone seems to be getting sick this week...

Ingredients:

• tenerome di zucchini-ends of zucchini plant (ask an Italian neighbour or go to an Italian grocery store as this may be hard to find)
  
• 1 onion
• 1-2 cloves of garlic
• 2 small potatoes
• 2-3 small tomatoes
• 1-2 small zucchini
• salt & pepper to taste
• ditali pasta - small, short-cut pasta tubes
  

How to prepare:
Wash, peel and chop all ingredients to soup size.

Boil all ingredients together in a large pot of water, once potatoes are soft add salt and pepper to taste.

Add pasta to existing water when potatoes are almost ready. Cook pasta in same pot to preference (al dente /well done) and serve. You can add chili pepper to give it a little kick.

So simple...
