Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread

So, we return from vacation, and my zucchini plant seems to have gone a little crazy.  We picked 7 zucchini's!  I gave away two of them.  Nick made some grilled zucchini with melted cheese and an egg on top (it was pretty good).  I made some zucchini noodles and Zucchini Chocolate Cake.

Since I have so much extra zucchini, I thought I would go in search for a fun zucchini bread to make and bring to the nurses at home that my Mom is staying.  I found this great recipe on ChefSavvy for Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread and made it for the nurses at the home where my Mom is staying.  It turned out to be a big hit!  Check out the pictures and recipe!
