Ingredients
- 3 tbsp (45 mL) olive oil, divided
- 1 red onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp (10 mL) dried oregano
- 2 bell peppers, seeded and thinly sliced
- 2 large green zucchini, thinly sliced
- 12 eggs
- ½ cup (125 mL) 35% whipping cream
- Salt and pepper
- 1 cup (250 mL) shredded old Cheddar cheese
- 8 slices bread, cut into 1/2-inch (1 cm) cubes
Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a 9-inch (23 cm) cake pan or casserole dish by greasing the bottom and sides.
- Step 2
In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook until transparent (about 2 minutes), stirring occasionally. Add garlic and oregano and cook for 1 minute. Add peppers and cook until tender, stirring frequently. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Step 3
Heat remaining oil in the skillet; add zucchini and cook until tender (about 4 minutes), stirring frequently. Drain mixture and pat dry. Add to onion mixture and stir to combine.
- Step 4
In a large bowl, whisk eggs and cream until blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in vegetables, cheese, and half of the bread cubes.
- Step 5
Arrange remaining bread cubes in the bottom of the greased pan to form a crust. Pour egg mixture into the pan. Bake, uncovered, until golden and set, 55 to 60 minutes.
- Step 6
Run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen. Remove from pan and cut into wedges.
