1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 pound (about 2 or 3) yellow zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup freshly chopped dill
1/4 cup freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley
5 large eggs plus 5 large egg whites, lightly beaten
1 tomato, thinly sliced
2 ounces low-fat feta cheese, crumbled
Directions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a pie dish or baking dish with olive oil.
- Cook the Zucchini: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the green and yellow zucchini, scallions, garlic, dried marjoram, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until the zucchini softens.
- Combine the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked zucchini mixture with the freshly chopped dill and parsley. Stir in the lightly beaten eggs and egg whites until everything is well mixed.
- Assemble the Pie: Pour the zucchini and egg mixture into the prepared pie dish. Arrange the thinly sliced tomato on top of the mixture, and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
- Bake: Bake the zucchini pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
- Serve: Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with extra dill or parsley if desired.
