ZUCCHINI PIE BARS
Amazing apple-tasting pie bars. The lemon juice adds tartness. Spices and sugar give it the apple pie taste. I used a large zucchini that friends let get too big. As long as the seeds are removed, no one can tell it's not apples! Little bars of mock apple pie! Can be served warm with ice cream.

- Grate the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater, so it cooks evenly.
- Squeeze the grated zucchini in a colander to remove excess moisture.
