- SPINACH AND MUSHROOM QUICHE
- (Sarah Braford-Goldberg, Monsanto)
-
- 2 medium onions, white or yellow, chopped 1/2-1" size
- 8 oz. mushrooms washed ond sliced
- 10 oz. frozen spinach chopped, thawed and drained
- 2 or more cloves garlic, minced
- 3 eggs beaten with small amt. of milk ( 1/4c.)
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
- Herb for garnish and flavor, such as Rosemary, Summer Savory,
- Marjoram
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 9" deep dish pie crust
- Oven temp. 350Fo 1 hr or until it's no longer juicy inside.
-
-
- In a skillet melt 1-2 Tbsp. butter, over med heat saute onions and add
- garlic. When onions are translucent add the mushrooms and cook out the
- juice. Then add the chopped spinach and mix together. [It is probably
- a good idea to drain all of this in a collander]. Salt and pepper added.
- Place the pie crust on a cookie sheet or something similar.
- Transfer vegetable mixture to the pie crust and spread evenly. Sprinkle
- the mozzarella cheese on top, then sprinkle on the cheddar cheese.
- Separately gently beat the eggs adding the milk. Salt and pepper can be
- added to the eggs, add the herb 1/2 tsp. Slowly pour the egg mixture over
- the cheese and veggies. Sometimes its too full so don't use all the egg.
- Clean any spilled egg off the cookie sheet and put the quiche back on the
- pan, sprinkle with additional herbs.
-
- Place pan in the lower part of the oven for the first 30" and then
- transfer to the upper half to finish baking.
-
- It is just as easy to make 2 at once and then freeze one.
