Vegetable Quiche image

Adapted from http://stephfourie.wordpress.com ---------- Pair with a side salad for lunch, or a rice pilaf for dinner. You can also put it in a pie shell, with or without the sweet potato layer. I used phyllo dough, which makes for a beautiful presentation, and just mixed the sweet potato in with the rest of the ingredients. Because the egg mixture didn't look to be enough, I ended up using just over a cup of coconut milk and 5 eggs. Play around with the vegetable choices to suit your household. This is delicious served hot for dinner, and cold for breakfast the next morning.

Time 45m

Yield 1 quiche, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2/3 cup coconut milk
3 eggs, beaten
salt & pepper
1 sweet potato, sliced
2 cups broccoli, chopped
1 1/2 cups mushrooms, sliced
1 onion, chopped
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
feta cheese, to top (is not dairy-free)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice sweet potato uniformly (for even cooking).
  • Lightly grease both the bottom and sides of the quiche plate. Spread out the pieces of sweet potato in a single layer, making sure that as much of the baking plate is covered as possible and the pieces are touching one another.
  • Mix milk and eggs in a bowl and whisk briskly for about 30 seconds. Using the oil gently sauté the onions, garlic, broccoli and mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt & pepper
  • Transfer vegetables into prepared egg mixture and stir to coat the vegetables with eggs. Pour egg mixture over sweet potatoes and gently even it out with a spatula.
  • Bake for 35 minutes. Then, turn the oven off and let the quiche sit in the oven for additional 10 minutes so the eggs can set.
