I made this up last night and everyone said it tasted like pizza. It's an easy light meal, and vegetarian too! It's best to use a beefsteak or slicing tomato, less seeds and liquid.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Heat olive oil in a skillet; cook and stir the garlic in the hot oil until slightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the rosemary and let cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 more minutes. Cook and stir the chard until the leaves are wilted; cover the skillet and let the chard steam until the stems are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chard mixture to a bowl, stir in the tarragon and basil, season to taste with salt and pepper, and let cool. Stir in the mozzarella.
- Trim the stem and blossom ends from the zucchini and halve lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon, leaving a 3/4-inch thick shell. Discard the flesh. Beat 2 eggs with the milk in a bowl. Lightly fill the shells with the chard mixture. Pour the egg mixture over the chard.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the quiche filling is set and the zucchini shells are tender, about 40 minutes.
- To prepare crumb topping, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the bread crumbs in the butter until well combined and starting to give off a toasty fragrance, about 2 minutes. Remove the stuffed zucchini from the oven and gently pat the bread crumbs over the top in a layer; return to oven and bake until the crumbs are browned, 10 to 15 more minutes.

Tips:
- Choose the right zucchini. Look for small to medium-sized zucchini that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchini that are too large, as they can be watery and have a tough texture.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the zucchini. This will help to prevent the zucchini from tearing and will give you clean, even slices.
- Don't overcrowd the quiche pan. If you're using a 9-inch quiche pan, you should use no more than 2 cups of zucchini. If you use too much zucchini, the quiche will be too dense and won't cook evenly.
- Use a variety of cheeses. This will give the quiche a richer, more complex flavor. Some good options include mozzarella, cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère.
- Don't overcook the quiche. The quiche is done when the center is just set. If you overcook the quiche, it will be dry and tough.
Conclusion:
Zucchini mozzarella quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With its creamy filling, flaky crust, and cheesy topping, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
