I agree with pamcakes, this is a great recipe. To solve the watery problem try cooking the zucchini on low until all the moisture is gone, more like 20 to 30 minutes instead of 10. I also used mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar, added 2TBS of dried parsley and 1/4 tsp of dried oregano instead of the italian seasoning. I let the squash cool before mixing it with the eggs, mixed all the cheese in with the pie and did not add any to the top. Make sure you let the pie cool before serving. I let mine cool for about 15 minutes and it set up perfect. For those of you that have a summer garden this recipe is great for using up all that sumer squash. Just replace the zucchini with squash or do a mixture of both.

This is a great recipe!! I made this last night and even my husband, who NEVER (and I mean NEVER) eats vegetables absolutely loved it. The only negative thing I could say is that the zucchini gets a bit watery when it cooks so once you cut the pie, it turns into a bit of a mess. Other than that, it was very good and looked lovely coming out of the oven!

My mother-in-law gave me this recipe, it has been in their family for years. It is one of the few dishes my husband will eat without meat:) Thanks for sharing this, it is WONDERFUL! Definitely a family favorite! The only difference, we call it “Zucchini Quiche”.

This pie was a real showstopper. My husband liked it so much that he requested that I make it again next week. Definite keeper. Thank You!

Im assuming one could use a pie crust instead of crescent rolls?

This recipe was a huge hit! I did use four full cups of zucchini and a large yellow onion and it was clear it would not all fit in my pie pan (as it was a little on the shallow side). So, I added an extra egg, a tiny bit more cheese and split the mixture between two crusts. What a hit! The best part, I have a really nice meal to take to my cousin who just had a baby!

CountryCookinMama — you’ve outdone yourself again. This looks wonderful. I have a bunch of zucchini to use up so guess what I’m going to make?!
