Zucchini "Apple" Pie

This zucchini pie will pass as an apple pie! I had to make it to believe it...my family didn't believe me when I told them it wasn't apple. I used this homemade pie crust recipe. I had never made a pie crust before, and it turned out great! http://www.bigoven.com/recipe/best-pie-crust-ever/168727
