MacKenzie Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 I've had lots of pastry so decided to make a crustless mushroom spinach quicke- Covered the bottom of the pie plate with 10 ozs of cooked spinach from my garden, spread on 8 ozs cooked mushrooms and 1 clove of garlic. Sprinkle on 2 oz fresh mozzarella. Beat 4 large eggs and add 1C milk, a little ground pepper, salt, 2 ozs of Parmesan cheese, Mix and pour over the spinach and mushrooms. Sprinkle on 1/2C mozzarella cheese. As you can see it fills a 9 inch pie plate. Carefully put it on a 350F grill for 45 mins - 60 minutes. Make sure the centre is firm before removing from heat. Baked. Plated with a garden fresh salad. The white pieces are new to me, Hakurei turnips. They are moist and more like a radish than turnip. I have to admit that I went back for a second piece of quiche just to make sure it tasted as good as I thought:) I almost forgot this pix, I captured it when I was in the garden getting the spinach:) 1
tinyfish Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 Very nice MacKenzie I would have had seconds also. Love the garden photo.
ckreef Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 Not a huge fan of quiche but it looks tasty none the less.
MacKenzie Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Posted June 25, 2015 I'm not either, ckreef and usually I wouldn't even consider it without the crust, one of the best parts of a quiche I always thought but this one in my mind rivaled a pizza. It had to be the cheese and mushroom combination.
tony b Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 Beautiful butterfly picture. Save it for posterity, as we're losing them very fast. I've attempted to put in a monarch butterfly garden in my backyard this spring. So, we'll see if it takes hold and attracts some pretty butterflies. Oh, and the quiche looks damned yummy, too! Toss in a nice glass of Chenin Blanc and call it a very good day!
