Im really getting bored with the normal white, wheat, grain and fruity sweet bread recipes that are the norm. I thought I might make some vegetable bread for a change, but I dont really have too many vegie recipe's.
I'd really like to try something different with the extra vegies I have in the garden. Can anyone help me out with recipes for things like, brussell sprouts, squash, pea, broccolli, cauliflower and maybe even a green bean bread?
I know this is a really strange request but I could use the bread eating with my for soups and stews.

You should just start making up your own. I would make a big batch of dough and devide it in to several diferent parts and just start adding stuff to it. I realy like white bread with roasted garlic, carmelized onions and lots of fresh herbs. With the squash you can use a pumkin bread recipe or zuchini bread and replace them with the squash, I have found it works for almost all kinds of squash. Make sure you at least steem your veggies first so they arent hard in the bread. For the brocoli and coliflower I would make a flat bread and top it with them and then some cheese, mmmmm that sounds good. Good luck to you !!!

I was thinking of making some puree up and doing just like you said, just replace the ingredients with others.
I have a potato bread recipe which I really like so thought I might swap the potato for equal amounts of pumpkin and sweet potato or squash.
A flat bread with cauliflower and broccolli sounds really nice, that one I might give a go too. Cheers

I would suggest chopping up your vegetables and almost using them as a filling or stuffing in the middle of the bread. That way the bread still remains bready but you get to use up your fresh vegetables, too.

Dill and thyme, I would steem all of them and then do your puree. Add a little salt pepper thyme and dill. What I would do is make a simple bread like a white or french bread then add them in after you put in the first half of flour ( make sure they are still warm so they dont turn the yeast cold.) Then add the rest of your flour, it might take a little more to make up for the extra moisture and you might have to try a few times to get it right but there isnt any reason it wont work. I will try a few different things myself and let you know how they come out.
