Zucchini Bread

One afternoon when I decided that I wanted to bake Zucchini Bread, I didn't realize that I didn't have the number of carrots needed for the recipe.  So I did what I do best, used what I had.  In place of 2 cups of zucchini, I substituted apple and carrot for the remainder 2 cup measure.
