Stove-Top Zucchini Quiche...Sure, call it an Omelet!

One night as I found myself brainstorming for dinner, I had a desire to make a quiche to use a bunch of fresh eggs from a neighbor and a zucchini that was needing to be eaten. I found THIS   recipe for a quiche that is filled with cheesiness and I wanted to adapt it to our needs. I also really didn't want to turn on my oven and heat up my house and I didn't have an hour to prep and bake dinner, so I decided to use the recipe as a guide for the ingredients and then do it my own way. And it was a very delicious result. Here's how it went. I first saute'd  some finely chopped red onion and minced garlic in a bit of olive oil and then added one raw zucchini (Italian squash) shredded with my Chef's Envy. (And a sprinkle of sea salt) I cooked it until it was mostly done and slightly browned. I chopped up some raw spinach leaves and set them aside. I beat some eggs with 1-2 Tablespoons of almond milk and then added a few squirts of honey dijon mustard,
