Spicy Zucchini Oatmeal Cookies

Living In: Peabody, Massachusetts, USA
In my efforts to use the abundance of zucchini in my garden I concocted this little cookie. I prefer my oatmeal cookies to have a little jazz, so if you are not a fan of ground cloves they can be omitted. It's a not too sweet cake-like cookie that is perfect with your cup of coffee or tea.

Crisp little pink meringue cookies taste like strawberry cotton candy, but since they're made with egg whites, sugar free gelatin mix, and sugar substitute, they're perfect for low carb, low calorie, or diabetic diets. Just switch gelatin flavors to make lots of different colors and flavors.
