It's that time again...

It's that time again...you know, when people start giving you fresh stuff from their gardens. Someone at work the other day (actually that awful science teacher) gave me a zucchini. I kid you not, it was the size of a new-born baby. So today I made my FAVORITE zucchini recipe and decided to share it with you. You should try it!

Coconut/Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bars

Preheat oven to 350*

In large bowl beat 3 eggs
Add 1.5 Cup sugar
1 Cup oil, and cream these three.

In medium bowl combine:
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
2.5 Cups flour

Add dry ingredients to large bowl alternating with 2 cups grated (shredded) zucchini.

Stir in 3 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup coconut
1/2-1 cup chocolate chips (more is always better when it comes to chocolate!)

Pour into jelly-roll pan (high sided cookie sheet) that has been greased and floured or sprayed with a cooking spray.

Cook times vary, depending on ovens, but start checking it at 15 minutes. It should be done in under 30 minutes.

YUM, YUM, YUM!!!
