We enjoyed this veggie-packed slice for dinner, fresh from the oven, oozy, warm and gorgeously golden. We gobbled it up alongside a simple salad of fresh tomatoes and basil. Seriously, delicious!

This zucchini slice is so simple to make. Throw everything into a big bowl, mix, add the eggs/oil and mix again.
