Whoa, talk about falling off the bandwagon! And Quiche...

Well, the cooking resolution obviously flopped. I bit off more than I could chew, pun intended.  The amount of cooking exceeded the rate at which the cooking was consumed, and well ... my freezer could only hold so much food.  So I'm cautiously taking a slower approach.

I was at Michel's Baguette having ham quiche, a butter croissant and a hazulnut coffee when inspiration struck. The following is a quiche that I put together, off the top of my head. Sadly, my broccoli was in very poor shape from sitting in the fridge for too long :(  Also, the quiche could have used a little bit more milk or eggs; I'll have to fiddle with the recipe a little bit.



Broccoli-Kolbassa Quiche

3 Broccoli Florets + Stem, washed and diced small
375g Kolbassa Sausage, diced small
Old Cheddar, a chunk shredded (I estimate it was about 1/4 of a long slab)
2% Milk, 500 mL
8 eggs
4 pie crusts
salt, a pinch
pepper, a dash

1) Mix broccoli, sausage and cheddar in a large bowl. Divide equally amongst the 4 pie crusts.
2) Whisk together the milk, eggs, salt and pepper. Divide equally amongst the 4 pie crusts.
3) Bake for 1 hour in a preheated 325 degree oven.

Edit 2013-06-13:
Adjustments for the next time:
- measure amount of shredded cheese. Use approximately 2 cups.
- Use 2 1/2 cups of milk
- Use 9 eggs
- Bake the crust about 10-15 minutes before filling
