Looks delicious.

so pretty and colorful.

Cornucopia quiche, very nice. was there room for eggs?

Oooh, looks tasty!

"And I think that's a ham & vegetable quiche?"

Way more vegetables than ham! Vegetable quiche with ham?

Nitpick much?

🙂

Sounds delish!

Your quiche looks delicious! I have only made a quiche once. I find it a bit daunting to tell the truth. Yours is making me hungry now. Thanks for sharing that!!

@murraysmom Zone 6a OH, quiche shouldn't be daunting! All you do is make or purchase a crust, then fill it.

I make my own crusts as I prefer them. I used to par-bake them but I have found it doesn't make much difference if I do or I don't.

Then I sprinkle some grated cheese over the bottom of the shell, and if I have any, some cubed ham. Next, I briefly saute any other vegetables the I am going to add, such as mushrooms and diced onions, them sprinkle them over the cheese and ham. If I'm using tomatoes I just slice them and lay them on top, and if I'm using Swiss chard or spinach I slice it finely and cram it into the shell after I sprinkle in the cheese. It shrinks a lot.

Last, I beat three large eggs into a cup of milk, half and half, or cream. The higher the proportion of cream, the richer and smoother the quiche. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour over the filling to the top of the pastry (crafty trick- put the partly filled quiche onto the oven shelf and pour the rest of the egg mixture in so it doesn't slop everywhere when you try to put a full quiche into the oven :-D). If you're a little short of egg mix, beat another egg or two in the proportion of one egg to one third of a cup of whatever dairy you're using and pour that in.

Bake at 350F until it puffs up and is golden on top. It will sink back down as it cools.

Colleen - How long do you bake it?

Colleen, I use a purchased crust when I make my very delicious apple pies. Making crust is also daunting for me and I don't want to wreck a perfectly good pie by making a terrible crust.

I copied your directions and will give it a shot. Also waiting to learn how long to bake. Thanks.

It usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour, but I start checking it at 30 minutes. It’s done when you can give it a sideways hardish shake and the centre wobbles just a tiny bit, or a knife blade inserted halfway between the edge and the middle come out clean. But it’s OK if you cook it a bit longer, it will still be good 😁

Wait until I seduce you over to the dark side of pie crust making, it’s easier than you think 😁

@murraysmom Zone 6a OH - Sorry you are daunted by quiche. I find it so easy to make. If a store bought crust suite you better then by all means use it and enjoy your quiche.

I make homemade crusts. My mom thinks I'm nuts. She has used Pillsbury pie dough from the freezer section for longer than I've been alive. She makes the best pies ever. Do what works for you.

When I'm lazy, I just skip the crust, and throw the rest of the quiche ingredients in a grease pie plate and pop it in the oven. Some call it a frittata. I can't be bothered by a true frittata that begins on the stove top and then goes into the oven.

Colleen, that will be the challenge of the century!! And thanks for the time estimate. What's the worst that can happen, right? I will only have myself to disappoint and I am pretty flexible when it comes to most things.

Kendrah, thanks for the encouragement.
