When trying to think about how to use my 2 ft. zucchini from my aunt Marilyn’s garden, I quickly thought of Gina’s recipe for zucchini tots that she recently posted.
I assumed Anna would love them so I set to work. I adapted the recipe because I wanted to use a little more zucchini and it turned out great. A cross between a frittata and crustless quiche.
Easy to pop into your mouth and filled with protein and green veggies.
