Zucchini, Jalapeno, Cheddar Crustless Quiche created by gailanng

This is just what I created for breakfast this morning. It's summer so we're having zucchini for breakfast, lunch and dinner, snacks and in our dreams. Throw in whatever cheese you have on hand. Don't have jalapenos? Use fresh herbs. Anything goes!

This recipe has been a "Life Saver" for my garden bounty of Zucchini this Summer. Easy and quick to put together and super tasty. It's also very flexible. My favorite kind of recipe. The first time I made it I only used 1 Cup of milk and still do. Otherwise made as written. It was perfect and we enjoyed it. However, DH and I wanted to kick it up a notch. Now I make it with 2 or 3 jalapenos. (No! It's not too spicy.) There have been times I add cooked bacon bits. I have even topped it with diced fresh garden tomatoes before I pop it in the oven. No matter what I do, it always turns out great. Thank you Penny for a keeper and a favorite. :)
