A great family dish, my husband loves this but was very upset when he saw me make it once and discovered its contains zucchini. The bonus is its a weight watchers recipe, 4 1/2 points a serve
Ingredients:
4 slices bacon, rashers trimmed of fat and rind
1 leek, sliced
2 zucchini, grated
2 carrots, peeled and grated
100 g reduced-fat tasty cheese, grated
1 cup self-raising flour, sifted
5 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/2 cup low-fat yogurt, natural
baby spinach leaves
Directions:
1. Wrap the bacon and leek in paper towel and cook in the microwave on high for 2 minutes. Dice the bacon.
2. Combine the zucchini, carrot, cheese, flour, bacon and leek in a large bowl. Stir in the combined eggs, oil and mustard. Mix gently to combine.
3. Coat a microwave safe quiche dish with cooking spray.
4. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and place in the microwave. Cook on 50% power for 15 minutes until the edges are firm and mixture is set, time depends on how powerful your microwave is. Place under a grill for 4-5 minutes or until top is golden and firm.
