Steps:
- Slice or chop zucchini and cook in microwave or steam.
- Drain well.
- Partially mash with a masher after it is cooked.
- Add onion soup mix and mix well.
- Add slightly beaten eggs and mayo and mix.
- Pour into a greased pie plate, quiche pan, or pan.
- Slice tomatoes and arrange in a circular ring on top of kugel until covered.
- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning (basil, oregano, parsley, garlic).
- Hint: I always score the top (into 8-10 slices) of this before I bake it since I find it easier to cut through the tomatoes when they are uncooked.
- Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose firm, ripe zucchini and tomatoes for the best flavor and texture.
- Use a large grater to quickly and easily grate the zucchini and tomatoes.
- Be sure to squeeze out the excess moisture from the zucchini and tomatoes before adding them to the kugel mixture.
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of grated Parmesan and Romano cheese.
- If you don't have matzo meal, you can use bread crumbs or crushed crackers instead.
- Bake the kugel until it is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the kugel cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
