Not sure what to do with your rhubarb? Try this recipe submitted by one of our members. Thanks Ariel!
Never having cooked with rhubarb before, I wasn’t quite sure what to do with it, so I turned to the internet for some recipes. I didn’t feel like making a pie, so I made rhubarb bread instead. The tartness of the rhubarb and the sweetness of the bread are delicious together! It makes a great snack or breakfast.

I substituted half the oil for yogurt, reduced the sugar to 1 cup, added 2 teaspoons of allspice, did not use walnuts and did not put the butter/sugar on the top.
