Bought some zukes at the local farmer's market- what to do? I needed a recipe w/o bread crumbs or flour, this one fit the bill. I did change a few things to make it more naughty and tasty. I used bacon grease to saute the zucchini slices and to grease my pie pan. I also used 1 cup heavy cream vs milk mixture, out of necessity, used a mix of cheeses- feta, queso and parmesan. Very simple, and elegant, this one is a keeper for me.

This was fabulous! And I even tried it using fat-free half & half for the whipping cream, 2% milk, and reduced fat parmesan cheese! And I got away with it!!! This has a yummy flavor like quiche without the trouble and bother of a crust. And if not THE BEST, has to be very close to the best zucchini dish I ever ate. Looking good, Evie*! Thanks!

This is a fool-proof and great tasting way to use zucchini! I used thyme in place of the tarragon. Great side-dish. Thanks!
