Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Generously coat a pie dish or quiche pan with ghee or avocado oil.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or avocado oil until shimmering. Add the zucchini in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until golden brown on one side. Flip and brown the other side before removing and setting aside.
- Lower heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of ghee or avocado oil. Sauté diced onion for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute. Incorporate baby spinach, stirring until just wilted.
- Spread the sautéed onion, garlic, and spinach mixture evenly in the quiche pan.
- Layer the cooked zucchini rounds and tomato slices over the spinach mixture, saving some for topping.
- Sprinkle chopped fresh basil over the vegetables.
- Whisk together eggs, plant-based milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
- Pour the egg mixture over the layered vegetables.
- Top with reserved zucchini and tomato slices.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until center is set and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the quiche to cool for about 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Notes
Use fresh herbs for maximum flavor. Let the quiche rest before slicing to make serving easier.
