This is a zucchini pie, not a zucchini pie in the traditional sense, because the zucchini doesn't dominate the flavor; it simply adds its aroma and helps highlight the other flavors. Also, although it smells like bacon, it's not heavy.

In general, crustless pies are a favorite quick solution for me. They are a joy for creativity while saving time and are an excellent choice for clearing out the fridge. 😉

In this case, I wanted to use some poor zucchinis that were on their last legs!

Είναι ωραίο να ανοίγεις τη κουζίνα σου για τους άλλους και να μοιράζεσαι τα "μυστικά" σου! Αυτό που συγκεκριμένα μ' αρέσει στην εφαρμογή, είναι η υποστήριξη και η φιλικότητα που υπάρχει, καθώς μοιραζόμαστε συνταγές, συμβουλές και καλόβουλα σχόλια.Γενικά βλέπω τη μαγειρική ως κάτι το δημιουργικό, σα βρώσιμη χειροτεχνία (!) που ευχαριστεί κι εμένα και τους γύρω μου.Αφού χρειάζεται ούτως ή άλλως να μαγειρεύουμε... ας το διασκεδάσουμε κιόλας!
