Ingredients
- 1 pie crust homemade or store bought
- 4 egg
- 1.5 cups milk
- 1.5 cups cheese I used gouda, mild cheddar, sharp cheddar and fresh Parmigiano reggiano, mixed, grated
- .25 lbs Shrimp cooked
- 1/2-3/4 cup asparagus blanched and cooled
- 2 tsp dill weed
- ½ tsp salt
- 1½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Place crust in pie plate and crimp edges.
- Dice about 1/2 of the shrimp in medium sized chunks
- Whisk the eggs in large bowl. Add rest of ingredients and mix.
- Pour egg mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until only the very center of the quiche wiggles. You can also test it with a cake tester. If the tester comes out clean, it's done.
- Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before cutting.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Resting step is very important! If you cut quiche before the rest, it will fall apart.
- Center should wiggle like jello, when done.
- Do not overcook or quiche will crack.
- Refrigerate leftovers promptly. Will keep for 3-4 days.
- Do not freeze
