Vegetable Quiche

DSC_0223 
Day 2 of conscious healthy eating is here.  I know that I swore off bread and all of its deliciousness, but I had a pie crust in the refrigerator and didn't want it to suffer just because I decided to get all healthy.

I tried to think of ways to counteract all of the pie crusts carbohydrate goodness.  So, I actioned a vegetable quiche with milk instead of cream.  And much less cheese.  I only used 3/4 of a cup.  Baby steps...

Anyway, it was incredible.  I'd do that again.

Every-Vegetable-But-The-Kitchen-Sink Quiche:


Ingredients:

  •  3 eggs
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 zucchini
  • 2 Campari tomatoes
  • 4 mushrooms, crimini
  • spinach, a handful of the bagged stuff
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded


  1. Chop zucchini and mushrooms.  Give them a quick saute, until both are soft.  Add in a clove of chopped garlic at the end.  Be sure not to burn the garlic.  
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add 3 eggs and 1 cup of milk.  Whisk until frothy.
  3. Throw in sauteed vegetables.  Add sliced tomatoes, a handful of raw spinach, and cheese.
  4. Season with salt, pepper.
  5. Put this mixture into a pie crust.
  6. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 40 minutes or until firm.
  7. Enjoy!
