This is simple & delicious. I have subbed other veggies for the zucchini & onion. The only inaccuracy is that, after cooking this several times, the cooking time is exactly 33 minutes.
This recipe is a long-time family favorite! Although it tastes great when prepared as written, I sometimes like to add ham or bacon.
Great way to use all the zuchini growing in my garden this summer!
Very good- didn't have marjoram but it was not missed. Added ham like other reviewers.
Delicious! Made as is w/out marjoram since I didn't have any on hand. I thought this was going to taste bland, but it was so tasty and delicious. The basil is definitely a must!
To be honest this didn't seem like it'd world but it not only worked it knocked it out of the park! I did add one extra egg and took ReldaJ's mushroom idea. I made it about an hour before a breakfast potluck and it was universally loved. Thanks TOH and community!
Made this on numerous occasions and it's really, really good. Never changed it, it tastes just great as is!!!
I have made this lots of time over the years... It's delicious as is, or with some cubed ham added to it... Everyone in my family loves it!
I am a great Zucchini lover, expecially if they are young and tender then you don't need to peel them. I did 2 1/2 cups of zucchini and 1/2 cup fresh musrooms.
