ZUCCHINI CRESCENT PIE 
4 c. thinly sliced, unpeeled zucchini
1 c. coarsely chopped onion
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. sweet basil leaves
1/4 tsp. oregano leaves
2 eggs, well beaten
8 oz. (2 c.) shredded muenster or mozzarella cheese
1 (8 oz.) can crescent rolls
2 tsp. Dijon or prepared mustard

Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a 10 inch skillet, cook zucchini and onion in butter until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in parsley and seasonings.

In a large bowl, blend eggs and cheese. Stir into vegetable mixture. Separate dough into triangles. Place in an ungreased 11 inch quiche pan, a 10 inch pie pan or a 12 x 8 inch baking dish; press over bottom and up sides to form crust. Spread crust with mustard. Pour vegetable mixture evenly into crust.

Bake at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes, or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. (If crust becomes too brown, cover with foil last 10 minutes of baking.) Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Makes 6 servings.
