Method

Slightly beat 6 whole eggs and 6 egg whites, add cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper, & hot sauce. Mix well. Saute onions and mushrooms in a little oil. Add spinach, meat, onions & mushrooms to mixture. Pour into 2 pie shells (I bake the pie shells approx. 5 minutes before adding mixture.) Cook in 375 degree oven for approximately 40-45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Brush top with a little melted butter.

 

Notes: I make a variety of quiches and they have always been a hit. I use leftover holiday turkey and ham and also make a veggie quiche. My favorite is the spinach and mushroom. The hot sauce adds a little pizazz!

 

Number of Servings: 6-8
