Ingredients
Instructions

Tips & Substitutions
For added flavor, consider substituting the sharp cheese with a blend of Italian cheeses or using fresh herbs like basil or thyme instead of oregano. If you're looking for a lighter option, you can replace the vegetable oil with unsweetened applesauce or Greek yogurt. Ensure the zucchini is well-drained to avoid excess moisture in the quiche.
Serving Suggestions
This quiche pairs beautifully with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables for a light meal. You can also serve it alongside crusty bread or a tangy vinaigrette. For a more complete dinner, consider offering it with Easy Elegant Shrimp Stroganoff as a delightful seafood option.
