Simple Asparagus Quiche

Updated: Feb 3, 2022



Quiche is a great ultimate food. It can be for served as a spring brunch, and of course it's good for dinner as well. And you can add pretty much anything you want!


Sometime I make quiche when I want to clean out my fridge and there are lots of small amounts of leftovers.


Quiche is simple and easy to make - mix the ingredients well, pour into a shell and bake. That's it! (of course if you want to make a pie shell, it takes a bit more time...) serve with salad and it'll be a perfect dinner.






Ingredients

  • 1 pie shell

  • about 14 asparagus

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 4 eggs

  • 1 cup shredded gruyere cheese

  • 2 cups half and half

  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

  • salt and pepper for taste


Direction

  • Preheat oven to 350F/175C

  • Cook asparagus with butter, season with salt and pepper. Arrange the cooked asparagus on the bottom of a pie shell and add the cheese on top.

  • Mix eggs, half and half, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Making sure the eggs are fully broken up and mixed well with the half and half.

  • Pour the mixture over the asparagus. Bake for 15 minutes, then turn the oven down to 325F/160C and bake another 35 minutes or until it's done - the top of the quiche will get to a nice golden brown.

  • Remove from oven and allow to sit 10 minutes before serving
