As we’re preparing to move I’ve been going through cabinets and closets decluttering and re-homing items that we don’t need anymore. Yesterday I started looking through the chest freezer for dinner, and came across 8 cups of chopped rhubarb from last season. I used 4 cups of it to make Rhubarb Cobbler. While I was baking the cobbler I remembered that I had also made Rhubarb Bread last year, but I couldn’t find the recipe. Apparently I never posted it on my blog. This morning I found the recipe again, so here it is.
(And the rhubarb is coming up really nice so far, despite being transplanted at the end of the season, so maybe I’ll be able to harvest some before we leave.)
