ITALIAN ZUCCHINI PIE
This pie is Wonderful... I made for my adult children & they fell in love with it. Surprisingly the men LOVED it. I also made it for my friends mothers day celebration (about 20 people, made two pies) and her they all really loved it too. When there was only 1/2 pie left she took it and hid it from everyone so she could take it home LOL
