Blueberry Summer Squash Bread image

I started this bread because I needed to bake something to bring as a gift to someone's house and quickly found that my ingredients were limited to a few summertime fruits and veggies and not much else. As such, I improvised and changed a few things around from a zucchini bread recipe and created this healthy, hearty, summertime bread. It has a slightly different flavor than zucchini bread but the same moist consistency and sweet, summery taste and smell. Note: it is not very sweet and does taste 'healthy', so it's probably not a big hit for kids unless chocolate chips are added.

This bread was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The bread was moist and flavorful, and the blueberries added a nice sweetness. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar next time.
