Easy Zucchini Feta Pie (Kolokithopita)
This is a recipe my grandmother would whip up for us on the weekends. You can cook the zucchini and onion in a pan or roast them like I did in the oven. Either way, we loved her for the warm company and delicious food she always made us. She was an angel before she became an angel.
Another fresh ingredients only recipe that really is simple to throw together. You can use a mandolin to slice the zucchini rounds or your knife; not too thick and not too thin. Keep in mind they will bake with the eggs and cheeses too! You can make this meal gluten free by subbing in almond flour in place of the breadcrumbs, which is great! You can use any shredded cheese you have.

Delicious !!!!! Love all these one pan meals
Thank you for this recipe!! 😘 I made it for dinner the other night for dinner subbing smoked mozzarella for feta & adding a few broccoli florets with a side of grilled asparagus. My husband was raving! Here I am making it again a few days later for Sunday brunch with sides of hash browns & sausage. Love this!! Your Yaya was a genius, as are you! 💛
HI Regina, Yay! Glad it was a hit with the family and thanks so much for coming back to share your feedback with the sausage – sounds awesome!

Hi Heather, better late than never lol
Thank you so much for the support on here and trying my recipes! Cheers!!
Soooo good! I added a teaspoon of minced garlic, used Bocconcini for the mozzarella, and 50g of the feta was marinated. It was SO good that I told my friend I would have to freeze it because the deliciousness was dangerous!
Hi Amy, That’s actually a smart move to freeze it! Thanks for sharing your feedback with us too- very helpful!
Every recipe I have tried from Hungrey Happens is delicious; including this one! Easy to make, and the blend of flavors is perfect. I wish I could share a picture of it.
I added sautéed baby spinach. I didn’t have mozzarella cheese, so I used shredded pepper Jack.

if I make it in the morning, how do you reheat for dinner
Hi David, just pop it back in the oven to heat through – about 20-30 minutes
My husband and I both love it! Made exactly as stated. Thanks so much.
This was delicious! I swapped breadcrumbs for crushed pork rinds, added an extra egg white, another zucchini and some mushrooms for extra veggies! I’ll be making this again, thanks!!
