Zucchini Slices

Zucchini Slices

I heard so much about eating Zucchini for health but this is the first recipe that I realised Zucchini holds up really well inside the Egg Custard or Quiche Filling and it taste really good.

This recipe is a keeper. I put some in the fridge and after 3 days, they still taste good and the combination of Zuchinni and flour gives it some volume and taste great. It is a look-good, taste-good recipe.

This recipe is adjusted from the following posted in Taste.Com.Au

Ingredients :- 

5 Eggs Large
150g (1 cup) self-raising flour, sifted
375g Zucchini grated and squeeze out water
1 large onion, finely chopped
100g rindless bacon, chopped
1/2 -1 Cup grated Tasty cheddar cheese
60ml (1/4 cup) vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon chicken/ mushroom granules powder
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of pepper
*Optional to add 60ml whipping cream or fresh milk to make the mixture harder.

Note:-
Tasty Cheese taste cheesy and can reduce amount to 1 Cup.
Possible to replace Zuchinni with Pumpkin.

Method :-

Step 1
Preheat oven to 170C.
Step 2
Beat the eggs in a large bowl until combined. Add the flour and beat until smooth, then add zucchini, onion, bacon, cheese and oil and stir to combine.
Step 3
Grease and line a 30 x 20cm lamington pan. Pour into the prepared pan and bake in oven for 30 minutes or until cooked through.              

Verdict :- I shared this first bake with my Connect Group Members and they like it. I would add pinch of salt to make it tastier.
