A Quiche Niche

It’s been proven time and again – eggs are good for you. So, why not skip the scrambled and fried, and try something new for a change? Eggs are so versatile, you can really make them work in just about any dish, but one dish that will really go beyond your “eggspectations” is a quick quiche.

You Will Need: five eggs; a bit of cream; one chopped onion; one package of spinach; one can of mushrooms; one pie shell; some shredded mozzarella cheese.

To Make: Mix the eggs and the cream with all the other ingredients. Empty all mixed ingredients into a ready made pie shell, and cover with cheese. Bake entire quiche for approximately 30 minutes, or until the pie is golden on the top.

Did you see how easy that was? The above recipe is for a spinach quiche, but you can really add anything you like to this basic recipe. Ham would be an excellent addition, as well as a variety of vegetables; different spices; bacon; various cheeses – really, anything that you think would work best. Of course, any recipe will be much tastier should you choose to use fresh ingredients (you will have to sauté them first), but if you are in a hurry, canned ingredients will work just fine. Also, a home made pie crust is always better, but again, if you want to make a quick quiche, you can buy a pre-made pie crust at nearly any grocery store. A quiche will make an excellent dinner choice, and since everything is in one dish you will not have to make anything else to go along with this recipe. Enjoy!
