CRUST-LESS QUICHE

CRUST-LESS QUICHE image

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch of greens (Swiss Chard, spinach, etc.)
1c chopped onions, leeks, or shallots
4-8oz of mushrooms, sliced
1 pepper (green, red, hot, etc.)
4 or 5 large eggs. If you have a lot of vegetables, you will need an extra egg to bind the quiche together.
1c milk
1-2c grated cheese, to taste (gruyère, fontina, parmesan, gouda all work well)
Salt, pepper, and fresh herbs to taste. Pick one: thyme, parseley, chives, basil, or oregano all work well.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables for the peppers. Zucchini or summer squash work well, too.

Steps:

Saute the onion, pepper, mushrooms, and other ingredients about 5-10 minutes or until tender. I prefer to get the water out of the mushrooms and caramelize the onions a bit. Add chopped greens and let them wilt. If you want to cook with the stems of the greens, add them to the other vegetables. In another bowl, beat eggs. Stir milk, cheese, and herbs into to the eggs. Fold in the vegetables and pour into a large buttered pie dish. Bake for 40 minutes at 350F or until the top starts to brown.
