- 1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
- 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp finely chopped onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley or basil, chopped
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp Italian seasoning
- ¼ tsp paprika
- Optional: 2 tbsp grated Parmesan
 Instructions
- Preheat oven: Heat to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare vegetables: Slice the zucchini and tomatoes. Pat the tomatoes lightly with paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Cook zucchini: Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add onion and zucchini. Cook for 4–5 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Make egg mixture: Whisk eggs, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, paprika, and half of the cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over the zucchini. Gently arrange tomato slices on top.
- Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and Parmesan if using.
- Bake: Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
- Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice and garnish with fresh parsley or basil.

 Q&A
Q: Can I make it without cheese?
Yes. It will still work; the texture will be slightly less creamy.

Yes. Refrigerate for up to 3 days and reheat gently.
Q: Can I use other vegetables?
Absolutely—bell peppers, spinach, mushrooms, or broccoli work well.
Q: How do I know it’s done?
The center should be set and no longer look liquid or jiggly.
