My husband in a meat and potatoes guy but I have to get rid of some things in the refrigerator...two of them being eggs and feta cheese. I thought some sort of quiche with feta in it would be great, but I am having trouble finding one that a ';meat and potatoes guy'; will like.
Does anyone have a good recipe or ideas?A quiche my husband will like?
My favorite website is epicurious.com - I believe that you will find some fantastic information on egg recipes and others as well. Peace!A quiche my husband will like?
Mile High Quiche
Pastry to fit bottom and side of a 9-inch springform pan ( I use Pet Ritz 9 inch deep dish pie crust)
1 pound sliced bacon
3 cups natural feta Cheese
6 whole eggs
1 egg yolk (save white to brush on crust)
1-1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
dash of cayenne pepper
3 cups light cream
2 green onions, chopped (optional)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Fit the pie crust into the springform pan. Brush the pie crust with the egg white. Fry the bacon until crisp; drain and crumble. Sprinkle the bacon and then the green onions over the bottom of the crust. Sprinkle the grated cheese over the bacon and onions. In a large bowl add the whole eggs, egg yolk, salt, nutmeg, pepper, cayenne, and beat mixture until well combined, but not frothy. Slowly, pour the mixture over the bacon and cheese in the pie shell. Bake 50-55 minutes, or until top is a golden brown and puffy and the center seems firm when it is gently pressed with fingertips. Remove to a wire rack and let cool 15 minutes. With a sharp knife, loosen edge of pastry from the side of the pan, and gently remove side of springform pan. Leave the bottom of pan in place and put on a serving plate to serve. Serve warm.
this isn't quiche but it's darn good! we call it bunch for brunch soufle take like a 6 eggs whip them up cut up a few slices of bread pick a type of breakfast meat or we've even made it with steak %26amp; liked it more! then chop it up into bite sized pieces add whatever cheese you want add some milk some seasonings whatever you normally like on your eggs peel %26amp; chop some poatatoes %26amp; you just mix it all up with the eggs %26amp; put it in a baking dish then put it in the fridge for at least 2 hours then bake it at 375 for like 40 minutes or until it's done i've also gone so far as to puree veggies %26amp; mix them in %26amp; nobody could tell the difference....but if he doesn't mind veggies you can just chop them up too
crumble up about 1/2 lb sausage and fry to remove grease, while the sausage is frying, peel and shred/grate about 3 potatoes. drain sausage. get your eggs beaten. layer potatoes, sausage, cheese and eggs in crust follow rest of your favorite quiche recipe for cooking time
par bake your crust( I use store bought)for 5 mins at 350
remove and let cool...line the bottom of your crust with feta ....top with thinly sliced onions(leeks are great to)...set a side
add 4 eggs%26amp; 3/4 Cup milk 1/2 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper to your blender or food pro.blend well...then pour over cheese and onions...bake at 350 for 45 mins or until puffed and brown.
for your quiche, get some artichoke hearts , green olives, and prosciutto for your base mix and add the feta on top before you bake. when i have left over eggs and cheese i like to make popovers. put the cheese in as soon as they are done baking.
