Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Bread

I must say, this was not the favorite quick bread in my family.  My daughter went to the kitchen to have a big slice of it when she took a closer look at the bread and asked me " what is the green stuff", I said.."Nothing".  Then she realised that earlier on I was grating some zucchini and thats it...."you put vegetable in a bread, yucks", she said.  There we go, me and my hubby had to finish the bread...but still it is a healthy bread, so go on and try it.... I am sure you will like it.

I halved the recepi.
