This prompted me to try and find something totally different to make for dinner, which proved to be more challenging than I anticipated.
Anyhoo- I decided to make a quiche for dinner tonight! I've made them before for brunches, but usually Quiche Lorraine, which sadly would not work for my meatless meal on account of the bacon.
So I adapted my dads quiche Lorraine recipe into a all veggie one!
(I also need to figure out a few other things along the way since he some how left out baking times and had very few measurements...)
The recipe is as follows! Hope you try it!
Ingredients:
-1 frozen pie crust
-1/2 a small white onion
- 2 small zucchini
-3 eggs
-3/4 cup whole milk
-1 clove garlic
-~1 cup cheese (mozzarella or other)
-a pinch each of: salt, pepper, nutmeg, cayenne pepper, paprika.
Directions:
-Let pie crust thaw while oven preheats to 325 degrees. Poke holes in crust with a fork to prevent bubbles. Bake crust for 10 minutes.
-Chop onion and slice zucchini. Sauté in a pan until cooked. Add garlic.
-In a bowl mix together eggs, milk and spices. Set aside.
-Let crust cool 5-10 minutes. Fill with zucchini and onion about half way.
-Cover veggies with shredded cheese the rest of the way.
-Pour egg mixture over everything in crust.
-Bake in the oven on a cookie sheet (in case of spills), for about 40 minutes.
-Let cool for 10 minutes.
