Zucchini Tomato Biscuit Bake

I’ll be honest, I had no idea what to really call this recipe. Is it a pie? Is it a quiche? Is it just a bake of some sort? I truly don’t know, but we are calling it a Zucchini Tomato Biscuit Bake, okay? There’s no crust and with the biscuit mix, it’s not really a quiche, but it also seems weird to call it a pie. I know one thing is for sure though – this bake is super scrumptious!

This is a great dish to prepare for breakfast or brunch when you are looking for more savory dishes that aren’t just plain eggs. It was made for summer potluck brunches (are those even a thing?). Basically, you will add some fresh sliced zucchin and sauteed tomatoes in with some pancake mix like Bisquick along with extra eggs and cheese and stick it in the oven. After it bakes, you will have this delicious pie-like, quiche-like breakfast bake to enjoy!

Recipe Tips and Suggestions:

• I highly recommend sauteeing the tomatoes in this recipe before you bake this. You can skip this step if you really want to, but it makes the tomatoes softer and gives them more flavor to sautee them in a bit of olive oil and fresh garlic. 
• I used Bisquick for this, but any type of plain pancake/biscuit mix should work okay. 
• Please note that you are not following the directions on the box for this recipe. This recipe has extra eggs (which helps makes this bake extra fluffy and more filling!)! We also add some vegetable oil and milk.
• The biscuit bake is best eaten within 3 days. Store leftovers in a covered dish or container in the fridge. You can prep this bake the night before you plan to serve it!
• I prefer to eat this warm, but it can also be enjoyed at room temperature or eaten cold.
