Quick Crustless Quiche.

It occurred to me while I was making quiche tonight that I never actually posted a picture of it. That's about to be remedied. I love that you could add anything into this, and I keep telling myself I'll mix it up the next time I make it, but this version turns out so well that I don't want to mess with it. I originally found the recipe on this website.


Crustless Quiche 
- cheese (I use Colby Jack)
- 2 Tbsp. butter, melted
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 c. flour
- 1 1/2 c. milk
- green onions, chopped
- mushrooms, chopped
- turkey sausage, chopped

Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a glass pie pan or quiche pan. Chop ingredients for filling (green onions, mushrooms, turkey sausage). Grate cheese, strew across bottom of pan. Place filling ingredients on top of cheese.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, butter, milk, and salt until well combined. Add flour, and whisk until just combined. Do NOT over-whisk (there will be flour lumps). 

Bake for ~35 minutes. Quiche should be firm throughout. 

And, as always, don't forget the garlic powder! As my father-in-law says, "Garlic powder goes in everything." Except desserts. And drinks. And ice cream. But seriously, don't forget it.

Edit: Do not use a quiche pan. I bought this one from BB&B, and the quiche was crawling up and over the sides of the pan. I ended up putting a baking sheet underneath it, but not before some of the cheese got pushed out and onto the bottom of the oven. Next time, I'll definitely be using that glass pie pan.

In daily news, I finally got a picture of a squirrel! I was on my way out to the car when I hear some rustling behind me. I stopped, and so did the movement.

Their camouflage ability is incredible.
Munch munch munch.
Someone had dropped saltines all over the ground in the parking lot, and this little guy had stolen one and started his getaway plan when I walked by. I was amazed that he held completely still while I pulled out my phone to take a picture. Well, he was nibbling on the cracker. Once I'd taken the money shot, I took one step away from him and he moved like a lightning bolt down the sidewalk. I'm not sure if he was scared or if it was just the heat from the cement that made him move so fast.
