Quick and Delicious Zucchini BreadJuly 05, 2008By BahamasGirl
"I've just recently started cooking in the microwave (I live in Costa Rica and the oven in the house I'm renting doesn't work very well) and have been searching online for recipes that I can cook in the microwave. What a find this is! I did modify the recipe just slightly, used 1 1/2 cups sugar and 3/4 cups oil instead of the amounts called for in the recipe. I didn't have the types of pans called for in the recipe either so I used a round pyrex pie plate and that worked just fine. The bread turned out delicious, even after my modifications. If you have all the ingredients on hand and you need a quick snack for someone who shows up unexpectedly, this is a great one."
