Banana Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins

I had a huge zucchini that I had to use up (but didn't with this recipe) and two overly ripe bananas (that I did use up!). So, I figured why not combine them and make something delicious with them both? So, I did. Although these muffins turned out much more "bready" than I had expected. Next time I may add more honey or some other spices, such as nutmeg. I think it lacked something...But, they were still tasty and tasted even better with peanut butter or jelly.
