Zucchini Brownies

So this recipe saved my life...okay...maybe a little dramatic but dang a girl just needs some chocolate sometimes.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of almond butter (peanut butter would also work)
• 1 1/2 cups grated zucchini - I typically use one small-medium sized zucchini and grate it in  my food processor with the small shredder blade)
• 1/3 cup of stevia
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips (or the whole bag if you've had a bad day)
• 1 box of sugar-free chocolate pudding mix

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips to a large bowl  
• Once all ingredients are fully mixed together, fold in the chocolate chips
• Pour into a greased 9x9 baking dish
• Bake for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Don't let the veggies scare you people. I have fooled my daughter, husband, dad, and teenage nephews with this recipe...and as you can see in the picture below...they tear them up. Enjoy!
