Number Of Ingredients 11

1 bunch fresh asparagus...cleaned and cut in aprox 1inch peices
1 medium onion diced
1 pkg sliced mushrooms
1 clove garlic...minced
10 eggs
1/3 c milk
2 c monterey jack cheese
2 deep dish pie shells
6-8 slices of bacon cooked and crumbed for topping
salt and pepper
2-3 Tbsp olive oil

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In one skillet saute onions, mushrooms, and garlic with olive oil.
3. In another skillet saute asparagus in olive oil ...add salt and pepper...I deglazed my pan with a little white wine...but not necessary I just like the flavor. You want the asparagus a little tender but don't overcook.
4. In a bowl whisk together eggs and milk...add a little salt and pepper. Add 1 cup of the cheese.
5. Evenly divide the asparagus and onion/mushroom mixture between the two pie shells. Pour the egg mixture over...1/2 in each shell
6. Bake for 30 min on 350.
7. while quiche is baking fry bacon and crumble.
8. After 30 min top the quiche with remaining 1 cup of cheese and bacon ... put back in the oven for another 5 min.
