Friday! Is it just me or has time been flying by these past few weeks? It feels like every other day I’m either wishing all of you a good weekend or telling you about the end of my weekend. Today’s recipe has me salivating for a slice of quiche. Several months back, I made a Bacon and Cheese Quiche and like all quiches in our house, it was a big hit. Recently, I decided I wanted to make a plain quiche. Even though I love adding vegetables to dishes and sprucing them up with spices, every once in a while, I crave something simple and plain. This quiche recipe is straightforward and kid-friendly. It’s basically cheese and milk and eggs. Ok, it has a dash of nutmeg which you can leave out if you’re making it for ultra-picky and alert kiddos with hawk eyes (you know, the kind that can find that one little sliver of basil in a mass of pasta that accidentally made its way into the dish). The nutmeg just serves as a flavor enhancer. I used swiss and cheddar but you can play around with the cheese combos. I liked the flavor of these two combined because swiss is very subtle while cheddar is a bit overpowering. They balanced each other out for a perfect result.
Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for reading!
P.S. I’m not doing anything overly fun or exciting this weekend. I’m hoping that at least one of you has something amazing planned…
Fresh farm eggs in various shapes, sizes and colors!
The quiche “batter” mixed together…
Poured into the crust…pre-baking
QUICHE RECIPE AND INGREDIENTS Quiche crust (use the crust from recipe here) OR (Gluten Free quiche crust recipe)
6 eggs 1/3 c heavy whipping cream 2/3 c milk 3/4 c swiss cheese, shredded/grated 1/4 c + 2 T cheddar cheese, shredded/grated dash of nutmeg dash of salt Preheat oven to 425F. Make crust per the directions, up to and including this step; Preheat oven to 425F and place a sheet of foil inside plate, forming it to cover the bottom and sides of the dish. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 5 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven. While your crust is baking, combine the eggs, milk, cream together in a large bowl. Add in both cheeses, salt and nutmeg. Pour into crust, taking care to spread the cheese around (be sure it’s not clumped together in one area of the crust). Bake at 425F for about 30-35 minutes. Quiche should be set in the center and knife should come out clean when inserted into the center. If it’s still loose, bake for a bit longer until knife comes out clean, about 5 minutes.
Isn’t it funny how we trick ourselves into thinking that miniature foods taste so much better? Cupcakes. Cake pops. Mini candy bars. Fingerling potatoes. Bite-size anything. For example, given the choice between sugar cubes and plain sugar, I’d pick sugar cubes any day, even though they taste the same.I’m weird. But these mini rosemary onion quiches…
I love summer cooking. It means more pizza and burgers. And more fruits and vegetables that are fresh. One of my favorite ways to use said vegetables is in this fresh salsa recipe. Perfectly ripe tomatoes are one of the key ingredients. Nothing beats homemade salsa. So many flavors exist that never survive the canning process in the store-bought…
Lace up flats are the best. You all know that my appreciation for flats has been a recent thing – my love for heels has been difficult to overcome but I’ve gradually managed to add a few heel-less shoes here and there. The secret to these lace up flats is the hidden wedge. So really, I didn’t sacrifice…
Good fish recipes can be hard to come by. I’ve had some pretty terrible recipes that have *almost* turned me off fish and others that have made me want to make fish every day. A good cut is important as is the quality. Near our new home we have a butcher shop so I’ll probably…
My jewelry stands were never great – I have a cute French-style pocket holder that I love but it just doesn’t keep my necklaces untangled. So I stopped using it and placed my pieces on plates. Worst idea ever. They became even more tangled and it was ridiculous to keep things in order. So when…
Things are finally calming down here in PA. We had a wonderful Christmas with family – my favorite gift came in the form of my dad coming home from the hospital. A big thank you to all of you who messaged me well-wishes. Secret Santa this year was as much fun as it usually is….
