How to Make Quiche by Chrissie

This is an original recipe of mine that is sensational at brunches. It is wonderful for a Mother's Day brunch, bridal shower brunch, (of course for more people, you would need to adjust the contents) or just for a relaxing Sunday at home with your family.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 8 eggs, beaten
• 2 cups half-and-half cream or light cream
• 8 ounces asparagus (from the can)
• 1 stalk celery, chopped
• 1 large green pepper, chopped
• 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 cup soft bread crumbs
• 1 cup shredded low-fat Swiss cheese
• 1 cup shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese
• 2/3 cup finely chopped red onion
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon chili powder (if desired)
• Nonfat cooking spray
• 1 large mixing bowl
• 1 large spoon for mixing ingredients
• 1 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.

2. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

3. Remove from oven. Let stand 12 minutes before cutting/serving. Easily serves six or more.

Tips & Warnings

• While this is a vegetarian dish, it is not a vegan meal. Please make certain to let your vegan guests know before serving.
