Grammie's Zucchini Squares- "Healthy" comfort food

This is one of those recipes that gets asked for and passed on through family and friends time after time.  I scored this years ago by way of my friend Sheri from her mom, Loydene, aka Grammie. And I had it safely written on two pieces of note paper...  Needless to say those two precious papers have been misplaced over the years, no doubt tucked away in a cook book so I wouldn't loose them!!!

Through the powers of Facebook, I'm now hooked back up with Grammie!  And a random chain of thoughts today led me to a craving for these, a quick post on Grammie's wall, and within a couple hours I was at the store picking up the few items I needed to make these babies.  Than you Grammie, mwah!

Ingredients

• 3 cups thinly sliced zucchini (I used two large zucchinis)
• 1 cup Bisquick
• 1/2 cup diced white onion
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan (I eyeballed this one, cause well...extra cheese never hurts!)
• 2 Tbsp parsley (I used dry)
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano
• Dash of pepper
• 1 clove finely chopped garlic (I use pre-chopped Christopher Ranch in a jar!)
• 1/2 cup veg oil
• 4 eggs (I use eggs from a carton)
• Butter (for your 9x13 baking dish!)

Directions

1. Pre heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Prep your 9x13 baking dish with a layer of butter.  Or use spray if you are able to contain that mess.  (I'm not!  And get in trouble when specks of the spray are later found on nearby surfaces!)
3. Combine sliced zucchini and Bisquick in a large mixing bowl
4. Add onion, Parmesan, parsley, salt, oregano, pepper, and garlic
5. Mix well.  It will be a bit clumpy looking. And the slices may stick together.  Don't fret. Just feel sure your spices are mixed up!
6. Add the veg oil and stir 
7. Fold in your eggs
8. Pour batter into your baking dish, put in the oven, and set the timer for 30 minutes
9. Finished product will be a beautiful golden color, with a firm "crust" and moist, but not sticky, in the center.

Technically this is an appetizer, but it's completely appropriate to have for dinner.  It's light but hearty, with protein from the eggs.  Make a nice side salad, top your square with a little dollop of sour cream if you want,  and call this a meal.  Great for a summer night.  And seriously it's so good and versatile that I'll be taking a piece with me to work for breakfast tomorrow!
