🍽️HOW TO MAKE
This recipe is very easy to make, especially if you use a store-bought pie crust. We made our own, but if you want to save time, just use a Pillsbury crust you can roll out.
COOKING STEPS
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a skillet, cook bacon, remove from skillet and set aside. In same skillet on medium heat, add zucchini and red onion.

In large bowl whisk eggs and seasoning until blended, then add in zucchini mixture, bacon and cheese. Add to pie crust and cook for 30-35 minutes or until center comes out clean.
I added extra zucchini slices to the top and sprinkled with pepper.
