Tips:

  • Use a large skillet: This will help to ensure that the zucchini cooks evenly and doesn't steam.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you add too much zucchini to the skillet, it will steam instead of browning.
  • Season the zucchini well: Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Cook the zucchini until it is tender but still has a bit of a bite: You don't want to overcook the zucchini, or it will become mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the quiche.
  • Don't overcook the quiche: The quiche is done when the center is just set. If you overcook it, the quiche will be dry and rubbery.

This crustless bacon zucchini quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With its simple ingredients and quick preparation time, this quiche is sure to become a family favorite.
