Preparation
  1. Wash the zucchinis, dry them, and pierce the skin. Cut off the ends and slice thinly.

Notes

Baked Zucchini Frittata can be served warm or at room temperature. Cut it into wedges and serve it on a platter, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or additional grated cheese for an extra touch. It's also great for meal prep, as it keeps well in the refrigerator for a few days.
