AVOCADO AND MUSHROOM QUICHE



Avocado and Mushroom Quiche image

Mushrooms with a hint of curry, combined with creamy sliced avocado, produce an unusual but interesting dish. You should be able to detect the curry, but it shouldn't be searingly hot, so adjust the amount as necessary. This is a 'crustless' quiche and is served directly from the dish in which it is cooked. I serve it as a first course, or for a light lunch, and my guests always seem to enjoy it. You could also have it on a picnic. Recipe from Beverley Sutherland Smith.
