Mandy’s Zucchini Slice

Ingredients

5 eggs

150g grated zucchini

150g Self-raising flour ( says sifted but I didn’t).

1 large finely chopped onion

1 cup grated cheddar cheese

200g rindless chopped bacon

60 ml oil

Cracked pepper to taste.

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 170 C

Beat the eggs until combined

Add flour and mix, then add zucchini, onion, bacon, cheese and oil and stir to combine.

The mixture will be quite sloppy but you can add a little more flour if you like, BUT you don`t want it dry.

Grease a baking dish 30 x 20 and pour into the dish and bake for 30 mins or until cooked through.

DELISH with a Greek salad (my idea) and a cup of tea in a very nice China cup and saucer!
