The Healthiest Zucchini Slice

As with all Ask a Dietitian’s recipes, this one is short and… savoury.  It only require one bowl and two steps!

Ingredients:

  • 2 zucchini, grated
  • 2 carrots, grated
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup wholemeal flour (check on the ingredients list that it is 100% wholemeal and not a mix)
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 5 local free-range eggs (free range is higher in nutritional quality and local means fewer food km)
  • Shake of salt and pepper

Method:

  1. Mix all ingredients together
  2. Bake in a lined or non-stick lamington tin at 170C for 35-40 minutes.

Enjoy with an unsweetened Greek yoghurt dip.

The original recipe is so classic that I’m not sure who to attribute my thanks to for first producing such a good recipe for me to base my version on. Thanks…world!
