A classic recipe that I have made tastier by adding bacon, Prosciutto, more cheese, and seasonings.
Ingredients:
2 cups of chopped/cubed zucchini
1 cup of chopped tomatoes – I use grape/cherry tomatoes sliced in half
1 small onion thinly sliced
1/2 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup of small mozzarella balls (marble size)
3 slices of prosciutto – diced
3 slices of cook slab bacon, drained and crumbled
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
3/4 cup of bisquick mix
1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 9 1/2 to 10 inch pie plate, spring form pan, or casserole dish with oil. In the bottom of the plate/pan, sprinkle evenly the zucchini, tomato, onion, prosciutto, bacon, and cheese.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and seasoning. Whisk in the baking mix until smooth. Pour this mixture over the vegetables.
- Place in oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until golden and knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Sometimes I cover mine with tin foil to bake longer so the egg mixture is thoroughly cooked. Take out of the oven and let it set up for about 5 minutes. Cut and enjoy.
- *Note: You can tweak this in many ways by adding slices of yellow squash, broccoli, cauliflower, different types of cheeses, garlic, spinach, and so forth. Make this dish yours.
