water, zucchini and lemon juice. Mix wet ingredients into dry, add nuts and
fold in. Bake in 2 standard loaf pans, sprayed with nonstick spray, for 1

In addition to traditional yummy sweet zuke bread, one can also make a yummy SAVORY one by reducing the sugars and adding parmesan cheese, pine nuts, herbs and even chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Try it for somethin' just a wee bit different!

Oohh sweet! Can't wait to give this recipe to my grandma (too lazy to bake, I'll wait until summer is over). I usually buy zucchini bread loaves at the organic market, but they recently have been increasing the price, it went from $5 to $9. Crazy!
