Liz's
Yummy Zucchini Slice

1 cup cheese, grated
1/2 cup vegetable oil (sounds gross, but trust me)
5 rashers bacon, diced
1 onion, diced
5 eggs
1 cup self-raising flour
Put all ingredients into a bowl and combine with wooden spoon. Spoon mixture
into baking dish (shallow pyrex style). Cook at 180 degrees for 40-50 minutes
until golden brown on top. Serve with a simple green salad or even on its own.
Really yummy and keeps well, great to re-heat the next day for lunch or a repeat
