Vegetable Quiche

Vegetable Quiche:

I used a whole wheat /  oil pastry for the crust and filled the crust with a mixture of:
Toss together:

  • 1 diced and sauteed onion 
  • 1 diced and sauteed green pepper
  • 4  small summer squash grated and squeezed (I salted slightly and let moisture drain for several hours)
  • 2 cups diced fresh spinach
  • 1 cup steamed and diced asparagus
  • 2 cups grated cheese (medium cheddar)
  • Seasoned with season salt  
  • I did add about 2 T bacon bits I had leftover from something else but I could not even taste the bacon


I then added 4 eggs and about 1- 1/2 cups milk in the blender and then poured over the vegetables. Add more milk if needed to bring liquid to the top of the vegetables

Bake for about an hour.  I would let it sit for a while before eating, it was still quite wet when served it.  We actually had to drain some of the liquid off, but it was a tasty quiche !!!

This is a huge pie pan and it holds all of the above ingredients. (I did make one tiny quiche for grandma with some of the filling)

The key is LOTS of vegetables and low cheese
