Savory Vegetable Slice Recipe

**Ingredients:**

– 2 medium zucchinis, grated
– 1 medium carrot, grated
– 1 red bell pepper, finely diced
– 1 small onion, finely diced
– 1 cup grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
– 1/2 cup self-raising flour (or 1/2 cup all-purpose flour + 1/2 teaspoon baking powder)
– 4 large eggs
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 1/4 cup milk
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional: 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or dill)

**Instructions:**

1. **Preheat the Oven:**
– Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a square or rectangular baking dish with parchment paper.

2. **Prepare the Vegetables:**
– Grate the zucchini and carrot. If the zucchini is particularly watery, place it in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess moisture.
– Dice the red bell pepper and onion finely.

3. **Mix the Ingredients:**
– In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, and milk.
– Add the grated zucchini, carrot, diced bell pepper, onion, and cheese to the bowl. Stir to combine.
– Sift the flour (and baking powder if using all-purpose flour) over the vegetable mixture. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs (if using). Mix everything until well combined.

4. **Bake the Slice:**
– Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
– Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the slice is golden on top and set in the middle. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

5. **Serve:**
– Allow the slice to cool in the dish for 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
– Serve warm or at room temperature, possibly with a side salad.
