Cheddar Zucchini Bread
I found this recipe in Chatelaine magazine while sitting in the dentist office. Went home and made 2 of them and took one to work with a huge response for copies so posting here to make again. This bread is awesome when a slice is browned in a pan like a grilled cheese sandwich.
