My Grandma Cash shared this recipe decades ago when I needed some fresh ideas for our over abundant zucchini crop . She was an avid gardener. And an excellent cook.
You will love how simple it is to make. No crust. Just chop, whisk combine and bake. Easy peasy all the way.
Grandma’s cookbook (which I now have) is stuffed with harvest recipes. Her friends gave her some, she invented a couple and she cuts lots of recipes from magazines.
I enjoy looking through the newspaper recipes she pasted into her Betty Crocker Recipe book.
It was her cooking bible full of her notes on the recipes. That’s how it was before the internet. 🙂
Grandma took me with her to visit those friends sometimes and to see their gardens. She taught me that gardening is about community, sharing and bonding.
Zucchini is a social vegetable. At Harvest time your gardener friends will be sharing produce like zucchini.
Just remember, always say yes. Zucchini bakes up wonderfully in recipes and freezes really well.

This is a great pie to serve for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Having a light summer brunch? This is a good candidate for the main course. It’s excellent with fruit slices and your favorite champagne cocktail.
We also enjoy adding cooked bacon crumbles into this crustless quiche occasionally to give it that yummy smoky flavor.
And that bit of smoky meaty chew the bacon pieces add.
Process Tips:
If you have a food processor and want to shred the vegetables that will work great. The pie will have a finer texture like the one pictured below. More quiche like.
- The zucchini should be tender and easily shredded. Compost old tough dry zucchini.
- The tomatoes can be any you have. If they are a really juicy tomato leave out some of the juice to help the quiche set correctly.
- This recipe calls for bisquick. You can also use our Homemade Baking Mix with coconut oil. It is healthier and shelf stable for at least six months.
Hand chopping the veggies will create a looser chunkier textured pie. Both methods work great and are family tested. Do what you like.
