Zucchini and tomato quiche (quiche the zapallito italiano y tomate)

Always I think zucchinis are absolutely impressive, you can use them salty or sweet, for quiches, for stews, for soups (are more creamy) and fortunately I have access almost all year round, being summer the best time of course.
And if you are in summer the tomatoes are wonderful in this time.
This simple tart of zucchinis and tomatoes is delicious and really easy.

I love this recipe but I add always some chopped basil is delicious.

Hugs and love for all
