Refrigerate dough on wax paper for at least 1/2 hour. Turn chilled dough out onto a floured surface and with a rolling pin, roll it out into a large circle. Transfer crust to a 9-inch pie pan. Bake pie crust in a preheated 350° oven for 5 minutes. For the filling: In a large bowl, combine eggs, cream, salt, pepper, onion, corn, beans and zucchini. Stir to blend. Add cheese and stir again. Remove pie shell from oven and pour quiche mixture into it. Return pan to oven and bake for 10 minutes at 425°. After 10 minutes, reduce oven temperature to 350° and continue baking for 30 minutes or until the quiche is almost set in the center. Let quiche stand for 15 minutes before slicing. Serves 4-6.
