Quiche

I don’t have a recipe as such, but here’s what I’ve got;

Fill a pie shell about 2/3 full with the fillings of your choice.
Fully cooked meat, seafood and veggies.  (avoid tomatoes or anything too wet)
Sprinkle with herbs and spices of your choice.
Cheese.  Any kind of cheese works, really.
-salmon, asparagus, dill and brie
-chicken, bell peppers, corn, Mexican seasoning, cheddar (serve with salsa)
-veggies,spinach, oregano and feta for a Greek inspired flavour profile
-carmelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, thyme and gruyere.  It will remind you of French onion soup.
Mix 3 eggs to 1 cup of milk.  Or cream.  Whip it up until the mixture is smooth and pour into the pie shell until it comes to the top.  You may want to sprinkle some more cheese on top so it looks cheesy.

If the pie shell you’re using is raw, bake it at 450F on the bottom rack.  Probably about 20 minutes or so.  You want the pastry to look golden and the middle to be a little bit jiggly when you take it out because the eggs will continue to cook as it cools.


You could use a fully cooked pie shell, but then you’d want to cover the edges of the shell (the part not covered with egg) so it doesn’t burn or get too dark.  Then you’d cook it at 375F on the middle rack.
