Sweet Potato Zucchini And Cheddar Pie Recipes

SHEPHERD'S PIE WITH ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Heat oil in large fry pan over medium heat. Saute onion, red pepper, and garlic 3 minutes. Add zucchini and beef, breaking up beef with spoon. Cook stirring often, until meat loses red color (4 minutes). Stir in half the cheddar cheese, 1 t. salt, basil, and pepper. Reserve.
• Preheat oven to 450. Lightly grease 9 x 13 casserole. Bring water, milk, and 1 t. salt to boil. Stir in potato flakes; then beat in egg and rest of cheese. Remove from heat.
• Spread half of potato mixture in bottom of casserole. Spoon meat mixture over potatoes; spoon rest of potatoes on top. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
• Bake at 450 for 15 minutes. Broil for 3-5 to brown top; then let sit 5 minutes before cutting. (If made ahead, heat for 30 minutes at 350 or until center is warm. Then heat at 450 for 15 minutes to brown the top.).

CHEESY ZUCCHINI PIE

Steps:

• Unroll and separate the crescent rolls into a 10-inch glass pie pan, pressing dough into the pie pan, pinching together seams. Set aside.
• Mix together dried parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried oregano, and dried basil in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini and onion and cook until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in dried seasonings. Allow to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, beat eggs in a bowl and add in shredded Cheddar cheese; mix well.
• Brush the bottom of the crescent roll pie crust with honey mustard and line with mozzarella cheese slices.
• Stir zucchini mixture into egg-cheese mixture, stirring until well combined. Pour mixture into the crust and sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. There will be some juice on the knife but no egg or cheese. If the pie gets too dark, you can cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent it from burning during the last 10 minutes of baking.
• Remove from oven and allow to set completely before serving, 10 to 15 minutes.
