Tomato Zucchini Pie

Crust
1 1/4 c flour
1/2 c corn flake crumbs
1/2 t salt
1/3 c oil
2 T cold water
****
Preheat oven to 375
Mix flour, flakes and salt.
Stir in oil first, then stir in water.
Press into greased 9" pie plate.
Bake 10 minutes.
****
Meanwhile...
Filling
1 T olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 small zucchini, small cubes
1 small tomato, seeded and chopped
1 t Italian seasoning
2 eggs
1 c milk
1/2 t salt
pepper
1/2 c parmesan, divided
****
Saute onion in oil until tender.
Add garlic, and zucchini and saute 2 min.
Add tomato and seasonings. Heat through.
Place veggies in crust.
Whisk eggs, milk and 1/4 c cheese.
Pour over veggies. Top with remaining cheese.
Bake 35-40 minutes ~ brown and knife comes
out clean in center. Let stand 10 minutes
before cutting.
**** (I substituted Corn Chex for the flakes the last time I made it and thought the crust was crispier...yum!)
Shown here served with pan fried catfish and mixed greens.
BTW...I combined 2 recipes from Tyler Florence
and Emeril Lagasse for the catfish and it was
the best...succulent, flavorful and very crispy.
A quick marinade and Panko Japanese breadcrumbs
are the secret! I may post the recipe in the future!

  1. What a delicious looking meal! I'd be curious about your catfish recipe. I've never cooked catfish at home (although I do like to eat it out), but I fix different white fishes at home often.
    Can't wait to hear more about your white chili, too. Hope it turns out well. We love white chili!

  11. Melinda ~ well thanks, it's a shame, actually, that the triplets won't eat my cooking...you know..those self-inflicted diets of theirs! Alex has come around to a few tastes of things, but the others are diehard to their 8 things that they will eat! (I know you can relate!)
