- Lower the oven heat to 375 degrees F.
- While the crust is baking, whisk the eggs, egg white and milk together in a large bowl. Whisk in the smoked paprika, salt and pepper.
- Stir the grated zucchini into the egg mixture, and pour the entire mixture into the prepared crust.
- Sprinkle the tomatoes, feta cheese and green onion evenly over the egg mixture.
- Bake at 375 degrees F until the egg is set in the center and starting to brown, 25 to 35 minutes.
- Let the quiche cool for about 10 minutes. Cut and serve.
