Christmas Quiche

  Xmasquiche2

I cannot stop making this quiche. My mom and I made it for the first time on Christmas Eve to have for breakfast on Christmas morning and since then I've made it twice more…and have plans for a third this weekend. Perhaps I should call this Year-Round Christmas Quiche. Which is why I don't feel bashful to share a "Christmas" recipe with you in January-almost-February.

The smoked gouda and sundried tomato make you feel like you're having something special. The kale makes you feel like you're having something healthy. And pie crust is never a bad idea. If you have the ingredients on hand you hardly need a recipe; you really don't need to measure a thing. So now you can be someone who is "just going to whip up a quiche". Everyone likes that person. 

Christmas Quiche

1 pie crust (homemade or pre-made)
9 eggs
~1.5 cups shredded smoked gouda cheese
~2 cups chopped kale, sauteed (frozen works great, too)
~1/2 cup chopped sundried tomatoes

Whisk eggs in large bowl and add shredded cheese, cooled sauteed kale, and sundried tomatoes. Poor into pie crust. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until quiche has set and is getting hints of golden brown.

    Frozen pie crust okay? Increase cook time? Will spinach sub for kale? And where exactly shall I find this smoked gouda… From, (pesty poster of the day!) 😉

      My recommendation is to let the frozen pie crust come to room temp before using. Spinach would be a perfect substitution for kale and the smoked gouda should be near the brie and fancy cheese at the grocery store although I found mine at Trader Joes. Let me know how it turns out!
