Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a medium skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter. When the butter starts to froth and brown slightly on the edges of the pan, shut off the heat and add the leeks. Turn the heat back to medium and season the leeks with salt and pepper. Stir to blend. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the leeks become only slightly tender. Transfer the leeks to a baking sheet and place the sheet in the refrigerator.
- Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Whisk the eggs to break them up. Add the slices of goat cheese and season with salt and pepper. Use a whisk to break up the goat cheese and blend it with the eggs. When it is fairly smooth, whisk in the cream, milk, hot sauce, and Worcestershire.
- Grease the bottom and sides of the baking dish with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and fill with the quiche batter.
- Place the dish in the center of the oven and bake for about 20 minutes. Open the oven door and gently layer the Brie slices on top of the quiche. Close the oven and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the top is slightly brown. Allow to cool for 20 to 30 minutes before cutting.
LEEK, ONION, BRUSSELS SPROUTS QUICHE/PIE
I had enough pastry over one day to make an extra pie or quiche. I had things in the fridge that needed using up and simply threw them all togther in an experiment... it came out so well that now I make it regularly. You could also throw in a small amount of broccoli, or cauliflower, but the flavour of just the original ingredient is still the one that we like the most. The amount of sprouts is a "guesstimate" since 1-2 handfuls is enough, depending on the size of the sprouts)

Steps:
- Combine the first 8 ingredients in a pan and saute gently until the onions and leeks begin to soften.
- Take off the heat and let cool.
- Cut your cream cheese into small blocks and stir well into the leek mixture.
- Add the grated cheese, cream (if using), eggs, salt and pepper and mix well.
- Scoop into an unbaked pie shell and cook for 40 minutes at 180 C (350 F).
- I got one extra (smaller pie) simply by adding another leek, onion more sprouts to my main mixture. I can't get pie crusts ready made here so used 4Susan's Basic pastry recipe #148258 which makes one larger pie and one smaller one (as shown in my additional photographs).

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH LEEKS
THIS is a dish I've tried a few times for my husband and me. Since we both love Brussel sprouts, I often experiment with different combinations to enhance the taste. We found leeks give the sprouts a special flavor.
