Cooking cue

Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 375°F and spray a glass pie dish with non-stick spray.
  2. 2. Quarter the cherry tomatoes and place in a colander to drain. Cut zucchini lengthwise into 6-8 thin strips, trim away excess white center, then dice into small cubes. Slice green onions, reserving some for garnish.
  3. 3. Pat the drained tomatoes dry with paper towels.
  4. 4. In a bowl, combine the zucchini, tomatoes, green onions, Parmesan cheese, and Mozzarella cheese.
  5. 5. In a separate bowl, mix Carbquik with oregano, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the half and half until well combined.
  6. 6. Gradually stir the egg mixture into the Carbquik mixture until smooth.
  7. 7. Either pour the Carbquik mixture over the vegetables in the pie dish or combine everything in a bowl first, then transfer to the pie dish. Stir gently until well combined.
  8. 8. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is nicely browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.
  10. 9. Serve hot or warm, garnished with reserved sliced green onions. Refrigerate leftovers for several days and reheat as needed.
  11. Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
