Zucchini Bites



Super simple and absolutely delicious!

Zucchini Bites

2 cups grated zucchini
1/2 cup grated carrot
1/4 cup grated onion
6 strips bacon, cooked crisp, diced
6 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 Tbs rendered bacon fat


Sauté vegetables in fat until tender.  


Remove from heat to allow to cool, stir in bacon.  


In a large mixing bowl combine eggs, cream, salt and pepper.  Whisk well, stir in cheese.  


Add cooled vegetables and bacon.  Mix well.

Spray a 12 cup muffin tin with pan spray.  Evenly distribute egg mixture among all 12 muffin cups.  Bake in a preheated 400° oven for approximately 20 minutes until lightly browned and centers are set.  


Remove from oven and allow to cool 10 minutes.  Run a knife along the edge of each muffin cup and remove.  Serves 4 to 6.

To make these as an appetizer you could put this mixture into mini muffin tins and bake for less time.  These save and reheat quite well too.  I also will make this up as a quiche.  Fantastic!

  1. Oh yum! We make a crustless quiche similar to this. Which reminds me, I haven't made in awhile. Thanks for the tip!

  2. I am not an egg eater. Will eat an over medium egg if the whites are really cooked. My question is do they have an eggy taste like a quiche?

  4. I make something similar only I use leftover pork and bake it in a 9" square glass pan. It really does taste yummy.

    God bless.

  5. Love this idea for leftover meats. I have tons of zuchini in the freezer from last year. On the menu list for breakfasts.
