Chard, Leek, and Thyme Quiche
Recipe from the blog, Being Cheap Never Tasted so Good
Ingredients:
pie crust
3-4 leeks, chopped
1/2 bunch Swiss chard, chopped
1-2 TBSP butter
thyme
1 c. milk
3 eggs
4 0z. herbed goat cheese
salt
pepper
nutmeg
Step 1.
Heat the butter in a skillet and sauté for about five minutes until they begin to get tender.
Season generously with thyme. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the chard and sauté for a couple minutes more.
Remove from heat and set aside in mixing bowl.
Step 2.
Wisk together milk, eggs, goat cheese, a few pinches nutmeg, and a dash of salt and pepper.
Stir in liquid mixture with vegetables.
Step 3.
Pour into pie crust.
Bake tart for 15 minutes at 425°F. Then lower heat to 350°F and bake for another 15 or 20 minutes until liquid is just set in the center. Allow to cool for 10 minutes or so before serving.
Adrienne's Notes: Next time I make this, I won't use goat cheese. I'll use something like Asiago or parmesan. The goat cheese was hard to crumbled into the egg mixture. It also added a mushiness to the quiche, which is already mushy in texture because of the eggs.
