Quiche

Growing up, we had hamburger quiche often, possibly weekly. Usually flavored with ground hamburger and cheddar, I've taken our family recipe and created a new take on this classic. There are so many options, so feel free to create your own!



1 unbaked pie shell
1/2 lb ground turkey
1/2 C onion
1 t olive oil
1/2 C mayo
3 eggs
1 1/2 T cornstarch
3/4 C milk
2 1/4 C yellow shredded cheddar
1/2 of a red pepper, diced
10 sprigs of fresh thyme


1. Saute 1/2 C onion in olive oil until translucent. Add ground turkey and sauté until lightly browned and cooked through. Drain and set aside.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

3. Combine 1/2 C mayo, 3 eggs, 1 1/2 T cornstarch, 3/4 C milk. Mix well and then add 2 1/4 C shredded cheddar, diced red pepper and the leaves from 10 sprigs of fresh thyme. Once evenly combined, stir in the meat mixture.

4. Pour into pie shell and bake for 35 - 40 minutes.


Here's another flavor combination to try:

1 unbaked pie shell
1/2 lb ground turkey
1/2 C onion
1 t olive oil
1/2 C mayo
3 eggs
1 1/2 T cornstarch
3/4 C milk
3/4 C white shredded cheddar
1 1/2 C mozzarella
1 box of frozen spinach defrosted
2 cloves of garlic, minced
