I make this recipe for almost any occasion - it's popular with company and at potluck dinners, and I've passed it around to many friends. My husband and I are growing lots of squash this summer...all for this quiche!

Well, I am about to put it in the oven and I don't know what oven temp I should be using.

I love this quiche. It's a big hit at my house. I make it all the time. I double it. I love the leftovers. Great for church lunches too.

WoW!!! I tripled this recipe, shredded 1 zucchini and added about 1/4 cup finely chopped asparagus and Wow! Delicious. I cooked in a large cast iron skillet (deep) for about 35-40 min. This is a great recipe-whole family enjoyed.

My family and I like this recipe very much. It is one of our favorite zucchini recipes. I did not change any of the ingredients.

I really like this recipe...the herbs really give it a lot of flavor. I wouldn't say its a good recipe for kids though as mine are picky about "spices" in their food. But it would be great for a potluck or picnic or brunch.

Excellent!! A perfect blend of herbs. I wouldn't change a thing. This is a definite "keeper". The presentation is awesome as well. Thank you for a great recipe !!!

This was the worst thing I've ever tasted. Making this wasted my tme AND money. I hope none of you don't believe me and make it anyway. Not only did my children hate it, my visitor did too.

It's a 40.00 dollar bill I deserve back!!!
