Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Danish Creamery coconut oil butter spread divided
- 1 ½ cups crimini mushrooms sliced
- ½ zucchini sliced
- ½ red onion sliced
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 8 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups 2% milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray or butter.
