Quiche

The delicious savoury egg-pie, from France!

YOU NEED: a pie crust, bought or made, blind-baked for 10 minutes until semi-done.

6 eggs 

1/2 cup milk

2 tablespoons sour cream

Cheese

Various vegetables, herbs, meats

seasoning.

Let's start with my favourite: feta, tomato, bacon, and spinach Quiche

1. bake pie crust for 10 minutes, take out and cool.

2. in a bowl, whip together 6 eggs. VICKY TIP: whip whites seperately for a super fluffy quiche]

3. in egg mixture, add in milk, sour cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. 

4. in pie crust, put in chopped tomatoes, bacon, and pour in egg mixture. [leftover egg mix can be made into another quiche, or an omelette]

5. finally top off pie with lots of crumbled feta cheese, and spinach.

6. bake for 30-45 minutes. use the toothpick-method to check for done-ness [if it comes out clean, it's done]

7. serve with a nice fresh salad.
