Recipe Review- Chocolate Zucchini Bread from PaleOMG



This recipe is not even borderline amazing, it is just amazing…Good god I could eat the whole batch. As you know by now I have been churning out tons of zucchini in the garden and I'm quickly finding and creating new recipes to eat all of it. 

I was at work a few days ago talking about my huge problems with too many zucchini on my counter and as soon as I said it I knew the next statement was coming- I wished I could retrace my words and go back but too late- someone said, " Oh why don't you make zucchini bread"! Ugh…No offense to you zucchini bread lovers out there but there is not another food on this earth that I have more disdain for…I mean, what food has such a cult following with people swearing that it is healthy- 'Oh I made zucchini bread and ate the whole thing it was so delicious but I was just eating vegetables so no biggie". Wrong. just because you add zucchini to something doesn't make it healthier- it is still laden with fat, calories, and sugar. It's about the same thing as eating a Krispy Kreme doughnut with a carrot on top.. Anyway, off topic…I don't care for the traditional bread…ok moving on..

I follow PaleOMG (Juli) on Instagram and think she's absolutely hilarious. So, I checked out her stash of zucchini recipes and her Paleo Chocolate Zucchini Bread one is a hit- No really- smack your mama good..She made hers as a loaf but my loaf pan was occupied with the chocolate cinnamon banana bread recipe I made yesterday..So muffins it was….

Here it is and I'm putting a direct link to her website for the recipe because she deserves muchos kudos for this one!

What makes something that is Paleo better for you than traditional ways of cooking? GREAT question. It depends on particularly what you are making BUT with this bread it has no flour, no oil, no refined sugar, and every ingredient is a whole food- no processed crap! More about Paleo in the future I have eating to do :)
