Farmhouse Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add broccoli and onion; cook and stir until broccoli is crisp-tender. Stir in greens and garlic; cook and stir 4-5 minutes longer or until greens are wilted., Unroll crust into a 9-in. pie plate; flute edge. Fill with broccoli mixture. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, milk, rosemary, salt and pepper. Stir in 1/4 cup cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup Swiss cheese; pour over vegetables. Sprinkle with remaining cheeses., Bake 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand 15 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line the pie crust with parchment paper, fill with baking beans or pie weights and bake for 15 minutes. Carefully remove the baking beans and parchment and continue to bake until golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes more. Allow to cool to room temperature before filling.
• Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, in a mortar and pestle or food processor, grind the spinach, parsley, sage, mint and marjoram with 1 teaspoon salt until a very coarse paste forms. If it doesn't form into a paste, add 1 tablespoon water.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter and herb paste until combined. Stir in 1 cup of the cheese.
• Line the pie crust with the sausage, pour in the egg mixture and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake until the center is set and the top is dark golden, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool at room temperature for 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, cook the sausage until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Then remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the baking powder, tomatoes and eggs together. Add the cooked sausage and the cheese to the egg mixture and stir together with a large spoon. Add salt and pepper and divide the mixture between both unbaked pie shells. Bake until the filling is set, about 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place rice in a saucepan along with 1 tablespoon butter, 2 cups water, and 1 teaspoon salt.
• Bring mixture to a boil, then cover pan, lower heat, and simmer for 40 minutes (do not lift lid during this time) or until rice is tender.
• Allow rice to sit off heat, covered, for 5-10 minutes more.
• Take 2 cups of the cooked rice and place in a mixing bowl along with 1 egg and 1/4 cup melted butter, mixing well (may use leftover rice for another use).
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Take mixed rice and press evenly in the bottom and sides of a 9-inch glass pie pan.
• Blind bake rice crust for 15 minutes at 350F and then remove from oven until filling (the rice should feel a little dry and not excessively tacky).
• In a small mixing bowl, blend together lightly 3 eggs, the buttermilk, heavy cream, chopped sage, salt, and pepper.
• Place crumbled bacon in the bottom of the rice crust.
• Top bacon with chopped zucchini, and then the peas, making sure filling is spread evenly.
• Pour egg mixture over the top of the vegetables and bacon.
• Sprinkle with grated cheese.
• Dot with little pieces of butter.
• Bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes or until top is domed, golden brown, and a thin knife can be removed cleanly from the center of the quiche.
• Allow to stand 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Pierce bottom and sides of pie crust with a fork. Bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes; set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; sauté peppers, garlic, zucchini and basil until tender. Whisk together eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in vegetables and cheeses. Pour into pie crust and top with sliced tomatoes. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Tip: Invite friends to come for a plant swap...what fun! Deliver invitations (tucked inside gardening gloves) and be sure to ask that they bring along plants from their own gardens to share...what a good excuse to dig in the dirt!

Steps:

• Fry bacon, drain, crumble; remove from pan, pour off grease; set aside.
• Separate crescent rolls into triangles, place in ungreased 9-inch pie plate (points toward the center), press seams together over the bottom and up the sides to form the crust; spread with mustard; set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375.
• In bacon pan, melt butter; saute asparagus, onions & mushrooms until tender-crisp.
• In a large bowl, combine custard ingredients; NOTE: if you didn't beat eggs first -- do that before adding the other custard ingredients -- stir in veggies, bacon, and cheese; pour into prepared crust.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes (knife comes out clean); let stand 5 minutes before cutting.
• Mmm-good!
