Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Unroll and separate the crescent rolls into a 10-inch glass pie pan, pressing dough into the pie pan, pinching together seams. Set aside. (5 minutes)

03

Step

In a small bowl, mix together dried parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried oregano, and dried basil. Set aside. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini and onion and cook until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in dried seasonings. Allow to cool slightly. (15 minutes)

05

Step

Meanwhile, beat eggs in a bowl and add in shredded Cheddar cheese; mix well. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Brush the bottom of the crescent roll pie crust with honey mustard and line with mozzarella cheese slices. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Stir zucchini mixture into egg-cheese mixture, stirring until well combined. Pour mixture into the crust and sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese. (5 minutes)

08

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. There will be some juice on the knife but no egg or cheese. If the pie gets too dark, you can cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent it from burning during the last 10 minutes of baking. (40 minutes)

09

Step

Remove from oven and allow to set completely before serving, 10 to 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using a combination of cheeses, such as Gruyere or Monterey Jack, along with the cheddar.
If you don't have honey mustard on hand, Dijon mustard or a touch of Worcestershire sauce can be used as a substitute.
To prevent the crust from getting soggy, blind bake it for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the filling, such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach.
For a vegetarian option, use a vegetarian Parmesan cheese.
