This last summer my Australian Sister-in-law made a delicious appetizer for a family get-together. I must admit that when I saw the name, Zucchini Slice, I thought it would be sliced zucchini. Was I wrong! It's not for the faint of heart, truly, as it's full of delicious cholesterol. Enjoy once in a while or bake it and take it to a party so you can enjoy the flavor without all the leftovers.
4-6 zucchini, grated
1 large onion, finely diced
1 C crumbled bacon
2 C cheddar cheese, shredded
10 eggs, lightly beaten
2 C flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 C oil (I may try 1/2 C oil and 1/2 C applesauce next time)
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
Mix the veggies, cheese and bacon together in a large bowl.
In another bowl mix the eggs, flour and other ingredients together.
Pour the egg mixture over the veggies and combine completely.
Pour this into a well-greased 9x13" pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-40 minutes or until lightly browned.
Serves 12-15 or cut into smaller pieces for an appetizer. Makes a great next-day lunch entrée also.
So far, I've only made this one fresh. I am curious to try preparing and freezing it but an concerned about the oil. I may try baking it before freezing, but our family usually gobbles it up so quickly there is none left to freeze. :)
