Asparagus & Cheddar Cheese Quiche

My girlfriend Becky makes quiche for our play-dates with the kids. Its a delicious and easy lunch or dinner, and a meal the whole family can enjoy!

4 eggs + 1 egg white beaten for brushing

1/2 bundle of asparagus sliced into bite size pieces

1 1/2 cups of cream

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Sprinkle of nutmeg

Salt & pepper to taste

Refrigerated/frozen pie crust

Cooking Spray

Spray glass pie dish with cooking spray. Arrange pie crust in dish and pinch edges with your fingers all the way around to make the crust. Brush the crust with egg white. Prick the center with a fork a few times so that it doesn’t rise.

In a large bowl whisk eggs, cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Arrange asparagus on pie crust and cover with cheddar cheese. Pour egg mixture over asparagus and cheese. Sprinkle some cheddar cheese on top. Bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes. Let cool before cutting and serving.

*Don’t be alarmed if the quiche puffs up in the oven. When you take it out of the oven, it will flatten out.
