I haven't in years; I think as a kid I found it too weird that a vegetable ended up in what's essentially a low-intensity cake.

Something like this recipe? (I was looking for my quickbreads cookbook, and it's gone on walkabout. So this looked like it might do.)

* 3 eggs
* 1 cup oil
* 2 cups shredded raw zucchini
* 1 3/4 cups sugar
* 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
* 2 teaspoons baking soda
* 2 teaspoons cinnamon
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 2 teaspoons vanilla
* 1 cup chopped nuts
* 2 cups flour
Put zucchini in strainer and press or squeeze with hands to get excess liquid out. Beat eggs, sugar, and oil together. Add flour, baking powder, soda, cinnamon, salt, vanilla, and nuts. Mix together by hand. Add zucchini (minus liquid). Beat mixture. Pour into 2 greased, floured, loaf pans. Bake 1 hr. at 350 deg. F.
