Southwestern Vegetable Quiche

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Eggs

 Ingredients List

  • 1 Pie pastery
  • 5 Eggs (if you wish; use just
  • -the whites; or egg
  • -substitute)
  • 1 pt Cottage cheese
  • 1 c Shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 c Chopped green chile (fresh
  • -is best; but canned works
  • -too)
  • 1 Thinly chopped onion
  • 1 1/2 c Chopped broccoli (fresh!)

 Directions

Beat eggs until frothy, add cottage cheese and cheddar cheese and mix well.
Add green chile, onion and broccoli and mix. Spoon mixture into pie
pastery and bake at 350degrees for 25-35 minutes (depending on altitude) or
until it is firm and edges are slightly brown. Best served hot, but does
well kept in fridge and re-heated in microwave. For varation try mushrooms,
zucchini or other favorite vegies. The green chile really adds a nice zip
to the quiche and I love it, but if you are not used to it or can't find it
in your local grocery, just leave it out.

Note on Green Chile: If you are buying canned, try to find Hatch Green
Chile brand, for it is by far the best, and also specifies hot, mild or
medium.
