Ingredients
4 eggs3.5 oz of ricottaa handful of fresh basil1 large zucchini or 2 small zucchinis sliced2 T. olive oilsalt and pepper
Directions
Add the olive oil to a saucepan. Then add zucchini and dash with salt & pepper. Sweat the zucchini for 10-15 minutes (until soft).

In large enough bowl, whip the eggs and ricotta together. Add chopped basil. Add the zucchini. Add a little salt & pepper.

Pour mixture into a dish that is oven safe. I use a ceramic pie dish that can go in. It will rise.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes (as soon as middle doesn't look goopy).

Makes 2 servings for breakfast but could be cut into smaller slices for a brunch. Enjoy!
