  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the diced onion for about 3 minutes until translucent. Add the shredded zucchini and minced garlic, cooking for an additional 5-6 minutes until tender.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or heavy cream, and season with salt, pepper, basil, and oregano until smooth.
  4. Spread the cooked zucchini and onion mixture in the pie dish, layer the diced tomatoes on top, sprinkle cheese across, and pour the egg mixture over everything.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until lightly golden and set. Let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing.
