There are over 6,500 languages spoken on this great planet of ours, did you know that? Okay, so maybe you did. Of those languages, there’s one that is universally spoken across the globe. Do you know which one I’m talking about? And no smarty, it’s not English, that’s too easy. It’s the universal language of chocolate!
Chocolate for Halloween, all wrapped in orange wrappers, chocolate for Valentines day in heart shaped metal containers, chocolate for Easter in the form of a large, solid, bunny, and wonderful little tins of cookies all dipped in chocolate for Christmas. Chocolate makes everything better, even oatmeal.
I was the kid that ate chocolate for breakfast. I’m not talking about Cocoa Krispies, chocolate muffins, or that hazel-nutty, Nutella goodness (don’t get me wrong, I ate those too) but I mean real, actual, hunk of chocolate. It was my treat for eating that egg or oatmeal that my mom wanted me to eat. It was a condition. If I had to eat what you make me eat then I get to eat something I want, afterwards. It’s all about compromise, right? So lets compromise, let’s put zucchini in our chocolate bread. Then everybody is happy!
By now, I’m sure some of you have declared me as insane and the other half of you are nodding along because you think this is a fantastic idea. Trust me on this though, it turns out amazing. It’s half cake, half bread, half brain genius. No one can tell that the zucchini is even there, not even my chocoholic, husband – chocolate coconut zucchini bread passed the ultimate test!
