Notes
Tips and Tricks
Ensure the pie crust is properly chilled before using it to prevent it from becoming too soft or breaking easily. If you're short on time, you can use a store-bought pie crust instead of making one from scratch. Sauté the zucchini, onion, and garlic until they are just tender, avoiding overcooking to maintain their texture. Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes after baking before slicing to ensure it sets properly and doesn't fall apart. Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature for the best flavor and texture.Nutrition
