    Title: Swiss Cheese And Mushroom Quiche
    Categories: Dinner, Pies
    Yield: 1 Pie

    1 Prepared pie crust
    1 1/2 c Swiss cheese; grated;
    -(Gruyere is best)
    1 md Onion; chopped
    1/4 lb Mushrooms; chopped
    Butter for saute
    Salt and pepper
    1 ds Thyme
    4 Eggs
    1 1/2 c Milk
    3 tb Flour
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Dry mustard
    Paprika

    Preparation time 1 hour

    This recipe makes one 9" pie. It can be an appetizer or main dish.

    Follow pie crust recipe for Spinach Ricotta pie, or your own favorite
    for a single crust.

    Cover bottom of crust with cheese.

    Saute onion and mushrooms in butter. Cover cheese with sauteed
    onions and mushrooms.

    Mix remaining custard ingredients together except paprika.

    Pour custard mix over mushroom layer.

    Sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 375 F for 40-45 minutes, or until
    solid in the center when jiggled.

    Variations:

    * Substitute Cheddar cheese for Swiss.
    * Use fresh tomato slices instead of mushrooms. Tomatoes don't need
    to be sauteed first.
    * Substitute 1 cup chopped scallions for the onion.
    * Add 1 ts prepared horseradish.

    Welcome back. Did you have a good road trip?

    Here's a crustless quiche I have made that is received well.

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Magda's Crustless Mushroom Quiche
    Categories: Cheese, Dairy, Mushrooms, Vegetables
    Yield: 4 servings

    1 c (250 g) cottage cheese
    2/3 c (150 ml) Greek yoghurt
    1/4 c Self raising flour
    2 lg Eggs
    4 tb Parsley or chives
    Salt & pepper to taste
    1/4 c Heavy cream
    2 c Sliced mushrooms
    1 c Chopped onion
    1/4 c Cheddar or Caciocavallo
    - cheese; shredded *

    * Caciocavallo cheese is a "stretched curd" cheese
    made with either sheep's or cow's milk. A southern
    Italian cheese, it's similar in taste to aged Provelone,
    with a hard, edible rind.

    Set your oven @ 350-|F/175-|C.

    In a large bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, Greek
    yoghurt, self raising flour, eggs, parsley, salt and
    pepper and heavy cream (double cream).

    Add the mushrooms, onion and cheese and combine well.

    You can garnish the top, with a few mushrooms and some
    cheese.

    Put the quiche in the oven to bake for about 30-40
    minutes. This time may vary depending on your oven. Bake
    until the quiche is golden brown and set in the middle.

    UDD NOTE: If your mixing bowl is "ovenproof" you can use
    that. Otherwise a pie plate works nicely.

    Welcome back. Did you have a good road trip?

    I had a most excellent road trip. I got to be of service, have fun,
    catch up with old friends, and get to know new friends better.

    I experienced a number of culinary delights, and i can't remember them
    all. This time of year we used a lot of home-grown ingredients, which i
    find satisfying.

    One friend has mint growing all over her property. I made about 6 gallons
    or so of mint tea and put it in the fridge. I only made 1 gallon at a
    time. It was a free cold beverage to help deal with the summer heat.

    Another friend helped me cook a meal for a small group. We made black
    bean enchiladas with lots of fresh vegetables and home-made enchilada
    sauce. We also made a better than average salad, cold hibiscus tea, and
    a custard with blackberry compote.

    For another friend, i made the Moosewood mushroom-cheese stuffed acorn
    squash recipe. I stuck to the recipe, except i topped the squash with
    shaved parmesan. We were both impressed by how delicious it was.

    He has been making various meat substitutes starting with vital wheat
    gluten and making his own seitan, processing it in various ways. He
    has also been making various home-made hot sauces. We shared some super-satisfying vegan burritos with those things, brown rice, sauteed
    veggies, and avocado.

    With another friend, we prepared a number of delicious meals. One
    memorable thing was ice cream. We used half-and-half, yogurt, agave
    syrup, quality chai spices, vanilla, and drizzled honey on top. We
    served it with a very ripe, chilled melon from a farmer's market.
    The honey kind of solidified into little chewy crystals. It was a
    magical dessert.

    Here's a crustless quiche I have made that is received well.

    Thanks for the recipe! Here's the Moosewood mushroom-cheese stuffed squash recipe:

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Mushroom-Cheese Stuffed Squash
    Categories: Stuffed, Vegetables
    Yield: 4 Servings

    2 Acorn or butternut squashes
    1/2 lb Mushrooms; chopped
    1 c Onion; chopped
    1 cl Garlic; crushed
    1 c Cottage cheese
    1/2 ts Basil
    1/4 c Parsley; chopped
    Salt & pepper
    3/4 c Bread crumbs or cooked rice
    2 tb Dry white wine
    Butter

    Split squash lengthwise down the middle. Remove the seeds and bake,
    face-down, on an oiled tray for 30 minutes at 350 F--or until tender
    enough to eat. Make the filling while the squash is baking.

    Saute mushrooms, onions, and garlic in butter with salt and pepper
    until onions are soft. Drain well, saving the liquid, and combine
    with the remaining ingredients. Fill the squash cavities amply and
    bake, uncovered 25-30 minutes at 350 F. Baste with liquid from
    saute while it bakes.

    Mint is a rhizome and spreads pretty freely - as does zoysia grass. If
    you have both together you will enjoy mowing the yard.

    Did you use yellow cheese on/in the enchiladas? Either real or fake?

    Did you use yellow cheese on/in the enchiladas? Either real or fake?

    Oh yeah, that was another way that i deviated from the original recipe.
    I used fresh, white Mexican cheese. I don't recall which exact variety.

    That looks quite decent. Here's a non-meat acorn squash I do in the
    nuker. Quick and fairly easy. Tasty too.

    Thanks! That looks like a simple recipe. I'll try it out some day.

    Fresh white Mexican cheese is queso fresco, aged moderately it's queso
    blanco and aged until it becomes hard enough to grate like Parmesan it's
    queso anejo.

    A good bit of the recipes in my collection are from people who I know and respect who are in the business of feeding people. Either straight up or adapted by me. Like this one sggested by Kathy Pitts who (along with her husband) was a big part of this echo some years ago.

    I have two versions of this - this is the one without pasta (medium shells)

    14 oz Can spinach
    12 oz Red Gold vegetable juice
    8 oz Can Red Gold tomato puree
    1 tb Sugar
    ds Nutmeg
    Salt & fresh ground pepper

    Combine broth, juice and puree in a saucepan over medium
    heat. when hot, but not boiling, add remaining ingredients;

    Freeze leftovers.

    From a starting point given me by Kathy Pitts when I
    mentioned that I really liked the Tomato-Florentine
    Soup at Red Lobster.
