# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 3 medium zucchini, grated
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
04 - 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

→ Seasonings & Spices

08 - 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

# Instructions:

01 - Grate the zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is crucial for a non-soggy slice!
02 - Whisk together eggs, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Get creative with seasonings if you like!
03 - Whisk flour and baking powder separately, then gently fold into the wet ingredients. Don't overmix!
04 - Gently fold in the grated zucchini and cheese. Sneak a taste – it’s delicious at this stage!
05 - Pour batter into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
06 - Let the slice cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!

# Notes:

01 - Squeezing out excess moisture from the zucchini is key to preventing a soggy slice.
02 - Store leftover zucchini slice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
03 - Feel free to experiment with different cheeses! Monterey Jack or Gruyere are great choices.
04 - Serve with a simple green salad or creamy tomato soup for a complete meal.
