Real men Egg Quiche

ChrisgrillsSTLMO

Looking for something new to Egg and SWMBO suggested a Quiche so I did a little research and came up with:

3 eggs

2/3 cup of half and half

2 cups Italian blend shredded cheese

Torn up spinach leaves, amount to your preference

Portabella mushrooms, chopped, amount to your preference

Kosher salt and Pepper

Mix all of above ingredients in a bowl and pour into a pie dish with crust

Top with any amount of cheese you like

Egg setup:

Platesetter, legs down, grill, spacers, pie dish

400 degrees for 25 - 30 minutes, I would turn the dish at least once to even out the crispiness of the topping.

This was the lightest and flakiest crust I have ever had, tasted amazing!

Sorry for the sideways pictures, not sure how to fix that...

Thanks for looking :-)

Cheers!

Very nice!  The sideway photos rotate and come up right when clicked on...not that it matters since the pie is round

you can call it quiche if you want to, but real men call it pie
looks good

ChrisgrillsSTLMO thanks for the idea for real men. Looks great

I learn something new everyday from this group.
Spacers - hadn't thought about it for pies. What type do you use? What air gap does it create?

Thanks in advance

I use baked clay garden pot feet that I purchased at Lowe's. I imagine they are available at any hardware/warehouse/garden store. The ones I have are shaped sort of like an easy chair so I can lay them on their side for about a 1" gap or as they were intended for about a 2" gap. I also use them whenever I make pizza to elevate the pizza stone.

Hope this helps, thanks for reading.

Cheers!

Found myself with some unexpected time off, damnit, so will be trying this recipe this week.
Made the stuffed peppers from the veggie forum last weekend, turned out delicious, even took the left over stuffing stuff and made burritos.
Thank you all for great recipes
