Quiche!

There is nothing healthy about quiche, except maybe the veggies you put into it. But every now and again I cannot resist pouring eggs, cream, and cheese into a ready made pie crust and indulging! Another dangerous fact about quiche is just how easy they are to throw together.

All a quiche is is eggs, cream, and cheese. For one pie, I use 4 eggs. The cream:cheese ratio is variable; you can use 2 cups of cheese and 1 cup of half and half, OR 1 cup of cheese and 1.5–2 cups half and half. Pick your poision ;) Cheesy, creamy delicious poison...

Always steam the veggies a little bit first. Leave them nice and firm—the whole thing is going to cook for about an hour anyhow.

Here's the recipe that I tried today:

4 eggs
1 cup half and half
2 cups shredded swiss cheese
steamed mushrooms and broccoli (firm)
salt and pepper
frozen pie crust

Beat the eggs and half and half and then pour into the pie crust. Add about 3/4 of the cheese and drop in vegetables. Cover with the remaining cheese and bake on 400 ºF for 1–1.25 hours. Quiche is done when knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
