I am a bread eater, I just love the fact that it can be sweet or savory. I love that you can put pretty much anything into bread that you want. I especially love the way my house smells when bread is baking! But, more than that, this busy Mom of 3 boys loves recipes using spice cake mix!
Kneading and rising and all that jazz takes too long for this busy mom – so, I am all about the boxed cake mix recipes. You know all those recipes that start with a box of cake mix and then make them better? Yeah, like this Easy Cake Mix Recipe: Zucchini Bread!
So easy, you will find yourself making this over and over again! Plus, it is an awesome way to get some vegetables into those picky kids without them knowing. 🙂
