Spicy Quiche

Spicy Quiche (my variation on a sausage quiche recipe)
 
1 pound beef, browned
8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (I used a spicy cheese blend with jalapenos)
6 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
dash pepper
1 cup heavy cream 

Put the beef in the bottom of a large pie plate, needs to be a nice deep pie plate. Top with the cheese, I only used about 6 oz as my pie plate is shallow (jalapenos if you want them). Beat the eggs, salt and pepper, then beat in the cream. Slowly pour the egg mixture evenly over the beef  and cheese. 

Bake at 350º for 35-45 minutes until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. 

Let stand about 10 minutes before cutting.

I served myself my 6th of the quiche with a spinach/herb salad, a dollop of sour cream and a dash of wonderful Tabasco sauce.  It was totally wonderful. Leftovers in the fridge for lunch with salad Thursday and Friday at work and one half frozen for later in the week or beginning of next week. 

Good eats

Breakfast: half of an omelet with mini portabella mushrooms, crunch sweet onions and chunky pineapple salsa. Good Belly.

Observation: Food is much more wonderful when you prepare it. I am always amazed after days of eating salads and such when I cook something in a completely different way and it tastes amazing. I think part of that is the fact that I did it. Plus I have pretty much switched back to wok only cooking as it allows me the luxury of cooking all in one pan. I can cook the onions and mushrooms and then pull up on the sides while I have the omelet in the middle them dump the veggies back on top. Love it.

Dinner: Salad with walnuts, raising, egg, chicken oh and green stuff. A little bit of goats cheese just to flavor it up.

Yes I missed lunch. Took it out of the fridge just now. Ugh we were so busy I don't have time to eat when we are that busy!

I am cooking again....

...and I love it.

Stir fry with strip steak, onion, mushrooms, water chestnuts, snow peas and sugar snap peas...plus a whole heap of garlic for good luck.

4 dinners in one wok!
