Zucchini Bread
a la Carlie (a la Mom)

3 eggs
1 c cooking oil
2 1/2 c sugar
1 T vanilla
1 t salt
1 t soda
1/4 t baking powder
3 c flour
1 t cinnamon
2 c grated unpeeled zucchini
1 c nuts
Combine eggs. sugar, oil and vanilla and beat thoroughly. Add sifted dry ingredients and blend well. Fold in zucchini and nuts. Bake in 2 loaf pans at 325 for 60-70 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Lemon icing:
1 t melted butter
1 t milk
1 t lemon juice
1 c powdered sugar
Blend and drizzle over bread. Pour over warm bread for a glaze, cooled bread for a bit thicker.

Note: I never ever put nuts in this bread. All that space taken up by a nut could have simply been more delicious bread.
