This delicious zucchini quiche has a creamy, savory egg mixture baked in a perfectly flaky crust. Layers of melted cheese and zucchini make the texture of this quiche cheesy and flavorful. I love using fresh vegetables in my savory breakfast recipes! It adds so much flavor, and it’s great to start the day by eating your vegetables. I add veggies to my omelets, in my breakfast casserole, or garnish with fresh veggies on top of my breakfast enchiladas.

In the Refrigerator: You can either tightly wrap your entire quiche with plastic wrap or put individual slices in resealable plastic bags. Either way, your quiche will last in the fridge for up to 3 days.In the Freezer: Wrap your quiche in plastic wrap and place it in an airtight container. You can freeze your quiche for up to 1 month before it starts to lose flavor and texture.Reheating: Using an oven to reheat is the best way to retain a tasty, flaky crust. Allow your quiche to thaw/come to room temperature before baking. Pop your quiche in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes or until warmed through. You can use a pie shield or tin foil over your crust to keep it from overcooking.
