7 small zucchini, trimmed and shredded |
olive oil flavored cooking spray |
4 large eggs, beaten |
3/4 teaspoon table salt (to taste) |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground |
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano, minced or 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/3 cup parsley, minced |
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. Steam, parboil or microwave shredded zucchini until soft but not mushy, about 2 to 7 minutes, depending on cooking method; drain thoroughly and allow to cool.
2. Preheat oven to 375ºF. Coat a 9- X 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked zucchini, eggs, salt, pepper, oregano, parsley, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese and oil; pour into prepared baking dish. Bake until center sets, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool for at least 5 minutes before cutting into 12 pieces. Serve hot, warm or chilled. Yields 1 piece per serving.
4. Use a food processor or a mandolin to quickly and easily shred the zucchini. Or you can use the large holes of a box grater.
