Ingredients

  • 2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 2 tablespoons honey Dijon mustard
  • 4 cups sliced zucchini
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken breast meat
  • 3 eggs

  • ¼ teaspoon dried basil
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese

Information

  • Prep Time: 30 mins
  • Cook Time: 45 mins
  • Total Time: 1 hr 15 mins
  • Servings: 8
  • Yield: 1 11x15-inch dish

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Open the cans of crescent rolls, unroll the dough, and place the dough into the bottom of an 11x15-inch baking pan. Do not separate the rolls. Press the edges of the dough up the sides of the pan to make a shallow crust. Spread the honey mustard over the dough.
  • Place the zucchini and a few tablespoons of water into a saucepan over medium heat, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook the zucchini until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set the zucchini aside. Place the onion in a large skillet with butter over medium heat, and cook and stir until the onion is translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir the cooked zucchini and chicken into the onion, and mix well. Let the mixture heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Spread the zucchini mixture in an even layer over the crust.
  • In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt, black pepper, basil, oregano, and garlic powder; pour the egg mixture over the zucchini. Sprinkle the cheese over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the egg mixture is set and the cheese is browned and bubbling, about 20 minutes.
