2 c. grated zucchini
3 1/4 c. flour

Beat eggs; add sugar, oil, juice, zest, and zucchini. Mix well. Combine dry ingredients and add to zucchini mixture. Mix well. Place in 2 greased loaf pans. Bake at 350* for 45 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool. Drizzle glaze over bread when cool.
