    French Courgette (Zucchini) Quiche, This is another good way to use up all that summer-time abundance of zucchini This quiche is served hot , This was really good – attested to by DH who ate 1/2 of the quiche by himself LOL I actually made 2 quiches out of this recipe as my pie crusts were small – I filled one and still had a little less than 1/2 of the custard left, so I decided to divvy it up between 2 pie shells since I had them This baked up beautifully – nice and golden on top and very moist on the inside I did substitute about 2 tablespoons of Hormel Peppered Crumbled Bacon because I was pressed for time and didn’t want to cook bacon, and I doubled the onion (personal preference), but followed the rest of the recipe as written Really nice recipe, and I got double for my trouble !! Thanks for posting – made for ZWT8 – France, and the Herbaceous Curvaceous Honeys
