- 1 bunch asparagus
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup tomato chopped & seeded, fresh
- 1 bunch green onions chopped
- 4 ounces goat cheese crumbled
- 6 large egg
- 1 & 1/4 cups half and half
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Chop the spears into bite-size pieces. Layer the asparagus on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

- Place the asparagus, tomatoes and green onion into the unbaked pie shell. Layer the goat cheese on top of the vegetables.
- Beat the eggs, half and half, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together for about one minute using a mixer or blender.
- Pour the egg mixture on top of the vegetables and goat cheese. Sprinkle evenly with cheddar cheese.
- Bake at 375 for 35 to 45 minutes until the quiche is set in the center.
