Heat oven to 375º. In 10 inch skillet, cook zucchini and onion in margarine until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in spices and seasonings. In large bowl, blend eggs and cheese. Stir in vegetable mixture.

Separate Crescent dough into triangles and place in ungreased pie pan or quiche pan, pressing up the sides to form a crust. (or place unbaked pie shell in pie pan)

Spread crust with mustard. (Our variation…cover the bottom of the crust with sliced pepperoni)

Pour vegetable mixture evenly into crust.

Personal Notes:
I always had a garden, and some years we were drowning in zucchini! Here is a recipe I discovered, a Pillsbury winner, that I shared with my Nanny (Sadie). She loved it, made it herself and found some variations that she sent on to me.
