Submitted by Tisme

"Found this recipe in a food magazine and have made a few changes to suit the family. They loved it ....YES even with the zucchini!!! You could use any combination of vegies in this slice -- Asparagus, mushrooms, peas, leek, spinach... even halved cherry tomatoes. Its all up to you and your imagination! This slice can be made without the bacon or even the bacon could be substituted for ham or prosciutto."
