Quiche!

[Elisabethsew 50]

I will start by saying I hate eggs so the raves I get for this recipe are from people who do enjoy them. Quiche is usually made with half & half or cream but this is a lighter version with a lot of Protein.< /span>

1. Take a store bought deep dish pie shell and prick holes in the crust on the bottom and sides.

2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (bake).

3. In a bowl, whisk together:

- 4 eggs

- 1.5 cups of skim milk

- Canned all white meat chicken or turkey (drained and flaked) - 11-12 oz

- 1 tablespoon worstershire sauce

- 1/4 cup of low fat ricotta cheese

- 1 tablespoon onion powder

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1/2 cup of low fat shredded cheddar cheese or another cheese you like

- 2 tablespoons of corn starch (this is the secret ingredient that thickens the quiche)

4. Pour the mixture in the pie crust.

5. Bake for 45-55 min at 350 degrees. If the quiche is not golden brown and set, bake for an additional 10 min.

I used to have a recipe that was my grandmother's for cheese crust Quiche but I lost it awhile ago :001_tt2: but it's probably not WLS friendly anyways!

I had quiche in a restaurant that was very good and it was made with swiss cheese and chopped up broccoli. They do have low fat swiss cheese. I hate eggs but I am going to try making this and making it with swiss cheese.

Thanks Elizabeth!

Oh I had forgotten about this recipe - I will definitely try it. I did the ricotta bake and it was delicious - I will definitely be making it again!

Did you do the ricotta bake that you add Tomato sauce over the top or the one you mix with sf pudding?

I made the one that you bake and then I put some Bertolini tomatoe and olive sauce over it (I put it on individual portions, not the entire thing) it was delicious -Bearded really liked it too - and I ate on it for several days.

I haven't tried the dessert one yet - will probably do so after the cruise - hoping it won't be too sweet.
