Description
A delicious and easy recipe for a crustless zucchini tomato quiche, perfect for a healthy meal.
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchinis, grated (about 2 cups)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with olive oil.
- In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the grated zucchini and cook for another 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Stir in the sautéed zucchini mixture, halved cherry tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish. If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden on top.
- Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider mixing in fresh herbs like basil or parsley.
- You can substitute the zucchini with other vegetables such as spinach or bell peppers for a different twist.
- For a heartier version, add cooked bacon or sausage to the mixture before baking.
