Quiche has been a staple in my family for as long as I can remember. Now that I'm out on my own, I decided to try my hand at making one. It turned out pretty well, but I will tweak a few things just based on preference. I adapted a recipe and it is surprisingly frugal! Check it out:
- 1 bag frozen veggies (in a steam bag for easy prep)
- 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (Any cheese will do)
- 4 eggs, well beaten
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Spoon cooked vegetables into crust and sprinkle with cheese.
- Combine eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in melted butter. Pour egg mixture over vegetables and cheese.
- Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until center has set.
The final product! It turned out great! Next time I will be adding more cheese and reducing the egg amount to two large eggs. I'm used to it being much more cheesy than eggy, but you can make it to your preference. In fact, you don't have to use cheese at all and could use any other filling! My mom makes a delicious crab quiche. Some other ideas are mushroom, onion, tomato, etc. Just think of anything you'd put in an omelet and you're good to go! Quiche is also a great leftover and tastes fantastic right out of the refrigerator especially on a hot summer day!
Enjoy!
