Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter or oil over medium heat and sauté the zucchini, onions and garlic until they are tender, about 10 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, basil and oregano.
  3. Press the pie crust into a pie dish and spread the mustard evenly over the crust.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, cheese and zucchini mixture. Pour everything into the pie crust and spread it evenly.
  5. Bake it for 30 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned.
  6. Allow it to cool for a few minutes (or refrigerate it for up to 24 hours or let it cool freeze it for up to 3 months.)
Recipe Notes

Do Ahead or Delegate: Slice the zucchini, dice the onion, peel the garlic, combine the dry seasonings, beat and refrigerate the eggs, shred the cheese if necessary and refrigerate, or fully prepare and refrigerate or freeze the pie.

Scramble Flavor Booster: Use Swiss, Gruyere, or another sharp cheese, rather than the mozzarella.

Food is one of the most powerful tools for building connections. At The Scramble we believe food should be savored, enjoyed, and shared, rather than restricted, avoided, or argued over.
