Best Ever Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread

It is late summer and zucchini season is in full swing, meaning zucchini bread season is in full swing! A trip home to Maine and a visit to my parents meant wandering their over flowing vegetable garden. This left me with an excess of (really quite gigantic) zucchini. My Mum's Zucchini Bread recipe is to die for, not too moist and not too dry, perfectly seasoned, and so damn good. All I added was some chocolate chips! The best thing about this recipe is you can add anything. Switch it up with whole wheat flour, dried cranberries, walnuts, whatever suits you!
