I made this recipe for a brunch and it was a big hit. I followed the recipe exactly and it was quick and easy to prepare the morning of the brunch. The smell of the zucchini, garlic, onion and butter being sauteed is so amazing! I cooked the whole mixture about 23 minutes and it was perfect-- light and tender. My friends loved that it wasn't as dense & heavy as a quiche and you could really taste the zucchini and herbs. It doesn't cut into easy slices like a quiche-- the eggs don't hold the vegetables together and so you'll just have a scoop on your plate. But once you taste this, you won't care a bit about presentation. It is really, really good. I topped my zucchini egg bake with fresh tomato slices and a touch more grated parmesan cheese just after taking it out of the oven. I'll defintiely make this again. It's a perfect summer dish.

When the author says this can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator, does s/he mean bake it, cool it, then store it and reheat it, or, put it together, store it, then bake it the next day? Thanks for the advice.

This was awesome. I tweaked it a little because I didn't have marjoram, but I did salt, pepper, parsley, and basil. Also I added some spinach and it was really really good.

This is really good, and it smells wonderful as it's cooking/baking. The only changes I would make are to reduce the amount of all the ingredients (except for the eggs) a little bit... this is a VERY flavorful dish... and I used Smart Balance margarine instead of butter. I don't even like zucchini! A good way to get your veggies... YUM!

Wonderful! I made the casserole the night before, and it turned out perfect. I doubled the recipe, and added mushrooms. I also could only find fresh basil, so I used dried for the rest. I usually make a sausage veggie egg casserole, but needed a vegetarian version. This will definitely become a staple for me!

I first found this in Simple and Delicious and have made it several times. Try adding some cubed ham to it if you want to have some meat in it. Everyone in my house really enjoys it (adults, teenagers and young kids!!).

I made with dry ingred. instead of fresh (1/3 ratio). Also Pam in place of butter. Use a loaf pan and cook another 10 min? to make it easy to slice, it was not overcooked. The 2nd time I made this with 1/2 cottage, 1/4 parm, & 1/4 shredded cheese. It was healthier and still excellent.

Excellent! Very easy, very quick to make. I pre-cut zucchini, garlic, onions the night before. Super quick to whip up in the morning. My brunch crowd loved it.

I made this for our 'breakfast club' at work; this is delicious! I didn't have marjoram, so I substituted oregano, which seemed to work fine. I will definitely make this again!

Superb recipe! I added crumbled bacon and fresh tarragon and omitted the parsely which can lend a bitter taste.
