Wonderful, eggy, cheesy snack for lunch boxes, picnics, etc. Quiche without the pastry. A real favorite - and a sneaky way of getting veggies in to the family. Sets firmly enough to dip into sauces.

This was pretty good! Tasty and it comes together relatively quickly. I was concerned about the moisture in the zucchini creating a somewhat liquidy texture (especially since the recipe doesn't state to squeeze out extra moisture from the zucchini) and I was right to be concerned. It was kinda sloppy even after cooling. I also ended up baking it about 50 minutes total because I used a 9" pie pan instead of 6x10" dish. Overall I would make it again but I would definitely squeeze out the extra moisture from the zucchini first. And pre-cook the bacon before crumbling it up into the egg mixture--just so it stays a bit crisper. Read More
