Here's Donna's recipe.....

 

Zucchini Pie

 

This is probably my most requested recipe. I always make one for every potluck

at work. Tastes like a quiche but contains no milk and there's no crust either.

Very festive and works well on the buffet table cut in slices in a 10 " inch

glass pie plate or quiche plate.

 

Zucchini Pie

3 cups grated zucchini

1 grated carrot (optional)

1 small onion chopped

1 cup flour

1 cup grated provolone or mild cheddar cheese (soy or rice cheese work fine

and don't alter the taste)

1/4 cup canola or or vegetable oil

3 egg whites beaten or egg replacer to equal

3 tablespoons grated parmesan (works fine if you leave this out)

2 teaspoons chopped basil, parsley or chives (dried or fresh)

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt (regular or sea salt will work fine too)

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix

well. Spoon zucchini mixture into a 10 inch glass pie or quiche plate that has

been coated with vegetable cooking spray. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until

golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes before slicing. This stores well as a

leftover for lunch the next day also.

I have made this recipe countless times since I first

saw it posted here. The recipe is extremely adaptable

and pretty much impossible to mess up. Every single

time (except once) that I've made it I used chick pea

flour. The flavor is wonderful! I made it once with

wheat flour and it just wasn't nearly as good.

 

I love using red onion, which makes it nice & colorful

with the green zucchini and orange carrot. I use low

fat cheddar cheese and egg beaters to keep the fat &

calories down.

 

One time I was getting my dry ingredients together and

grabbed the can of baking powder, only it wasn't

baking powder. It was baking *soda*. I had never

seen it in a can before (only an annoying box) and

bought it without realizing it. I already had the

veggies grated and it was late so I couldn't get to

the store, so I used the baking soda instead. Came

out just as good as ever. Impossible to mess up!!
