This recipe will serve 12 to 15 and takes about an hour to cook. Just don't tell anyone it is made from zucchini until they try it. Really delicious. I cut the recipe in half for home, but this is the full Monte. Sorry...this is way not low fat as per the butter in the crust. just half small servings and enjoy!
