Quiche



On Friday, at my Investment Cooking Class, we made Quiche filling to freeze for future use. I love having homemade convenience mixes in my freezer and pantry; and, this one is so simple. The nice thing about Quiche is that it is so versatile. Any combination of cheeses, leftover cooked veggies or meat can be used making this a frugal way to eat up food that might otherwise go to waste. And, you can even bake this without a crust, making this recipe even simpler to make.
  
Quiche

4 eggs
1 ¼ cups of milk
2 cups grated cheese (Swiss, Monterey jack, mozzarella, cheddar, etc. or any combination of these)
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
½ tsp. nutmeg
1 can (4oz.) diced green chilies

Whisk together all ingredients and pour into a zippy bag. Freeze. Or, pour into a well greased pie pan, non-stick oven proof skillet, or prepared pie crust. Bake at 350˚ for 35 minutes or until golden and set.

For Frozen Filling: Thaw overnight. Pour into a well greased pie pan, non-stick oven proof skillet, or prepared pie crust. Bake at 350˚ for 35 minutes or until golden and set.

    1. I'm glad that you had fun! When I lived in Germany I taught a class called Cooking With Confidence and we made basic recipes that had lots of variations. Let me think about a one-time basic class that would be beneficial. Do you have anything particular in mind?

  2. Thanks for the recipe. For some reason, I've never made a quiche. One of our kids has an egg intolerance so I think I've just never made many egg dishes, but this seems such a perfect way to use what you've got. I'm seeing one tomorrow night, with a non-egg option available. Thanks again!

    1. Quiche is one of those frugal recipes that is nice to have in your back pocket. It can work for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and is as fancy or as simple as you make it. Let me know how you like it!
