[CnD] Quiche

2013-05-01 Thread RJ
Today I am fixing quiche for dinner, for today is the  day my wife is 
returning home after 11 days from her vacation.

For the quiche.
Fry up some finely chopped onions and 1 large red sweet pepper. chopped
. a clove  of garlic slice thin
season to taste. (oregano, black pepper, salt, basil) to taste
When the peppers and onions are almost done. add some bulk Italian sausage 
(hot or sweet) I use the hot.

Fry until sausage is cook thru.
beat 6 or 7 eggs and add cheese of your choice. I used shredded cheddar, 
[About a cup full]

Add O/p/sausage mixture and mix well into eggs and cheese..
Pour into pie shell
Either store bought or home made. Today I use a  store bought  shell.I 
usually place foil a round the edge of the crust so it won't over bake.
Place in 350 oven and bake for 1 hour or until eggs set up.  Might have to 
bake for 1 hour 15 minutes or there about.


RJ

p. s. If I had some fresh spinach, which I don't, I would have tore it up a 
bit and added it to the mix.
