We've been helping our friends move these past few weeks and with all the packing, unpacking and taking care a few kids you could only imagine that there really hasn't been too much time to sit down and eat. For the past oh I would say 2 weeks or so it's been nothing but pizza, chinese, and junk food pretty much anything that you could eat on the go, so I decided to was time to make something a little healthier!!

Now this quiche is nothing to laugh at it fill of green squash, eggs and cheese. I started by shredding my squash on a cheese grater placing them in some paper towels or a cheesecloth to drain out any liquid (zucchini tend to have a lot of water in them so by doing this you won't have to worry about having a soupy mess on your hands), I then place my eggs, cheese and seasonings in a medium bowl  and stir until everything is combined, and then baked it for about 30 mins.

This dish is for breakfast, brunch or a side dish to your main meal for dinner. I hope you Enjoy!!

Note: I shredded my zucchini , but you can also cut it into slices if you prefer chunks instead. You can also add bacon, mushroom or a little sausage if you like.
