How to Make Zucchini Parmesan Custards With Sauteed Vegetable Dice

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 6-cup muffin tin or ramekin dishes.
  2. Sauté the vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color), and 1/2 cup chopped zucchini. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Prepare the custard base: In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Combine vegetables and custard: Gently fold in the sautéed vegetables into the egg mixture.
  5. Fill the ramekins: Divide the custard mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups or ramekins.
  6. Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the custards are set and lightly golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
  7. Cool and serve: Let the custards cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs (like basil or chives), if desired.
