Super Stuffed Quiche...

Super simple, super tasty, and super stuffed! These quiches are big, bad, and full of flavors that come together like Voltron. This recipe is made for two, 9 inch pie crusts that you can make yourself, or just purchase from the store. You can change this recipe up as well, by substituting your own ingredients. Hope you are hungry!

Quiche:

      - 9 eggs
      - 3/4 cup of Half and Half
      - 1 cup asiago cheese
      - 3 cups spinach
      - 1/2 pound cooked black forest ham, sliced and cut into small squares
      - 1 small onion, fine diced
      - 3 cloves garlic, minced
      - 4 oz white mushrooms, sliced
      - 12 sundried tomatoes
      - salt and pepper to taste.
      - 1/4 cup butter.
      - 2, 9 inch Pie Crusts.
      - Pre heat oven to 375 degrees

First, layer your sun-dried tomatoes on the bottom of the pie crust and save the oil for sauteeing. Set aside. Mix your eggs, half and half, and asiago cheese together and set aside. Once you have your onions and garlic chopped, sautee with the butter until they are translucent, season with a little bit of pepper and add the spinachSautee the spinach until wilted,  just about halfway cooked. Take your spinach and onion mixture and set aside. Add some of the sun-dried tomato oil to the pan until hot and add your mushrooms. They will suck up most of the oil, and remember that it spits it right out. So it takes about 6-8 minutes to cook all the way through. They love flavor! Once cooked, take your mushrooms and layer over the sundried tomatoes. 




Now add your spinach mixture to your egg mixture,then add the sliced ham and make sure its covered well. Now slowly pour the mixture over the pies, and it should almost reach the top. 



Once the oven is ready, put them on a baking sheet and for about one hour let them cook! Check on them every so often and turn. Once they are set up and ready to go, pull them out of the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Enjoy this treat, I sure did!
