Zucchini Egg Bake

This is to die for. 
Jason and I are always looking for new things to add to our collection of "go-to" meals and this one just topped the charts tonight. 
The recipe came from "The Primal Blueprint Cookbook". I am kicking myself over the fact that we've waited this long to make it. Don't make the same mistake!
What you need:
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 pounds zucchini, grated
1/2 pound ground Italian sausage or other ground meat
(we got ground pork from the farmer's market & Jason seasoned it with his own concoction)
3 eggs, beaten
1/3 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (we used just good ole' parmesan)

What you do:
Preheat oven to 350
In a saute pan, melt butter and add onion and zucchini
Saute until zucchini is tender, 5-7 minutes
Put zucchini in a colander to drain off any excess liquid
Add sausage to the sauté pan and sauté until just cooked
Combine the sausage and zucchini and season to taste
Add eggs, mix well, and pour into an 8x8 square pan
Grate cheese (or sprinkle) on top
Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes

It's quite versatile--could be served for any meal time. 
It was so easy and so good. 
All of the grating takes a little time, but it's totally worth it!
