CRUSTLESS ASPARAGUS-MUSHROOM QUICHE



Crustless Asparagus-Mushroom Quiche image

This is a variation on a crustless quiche I found here at recipezaar. Since my boyfriend is a picky eater I used asparagus instead of spinach and we were very pleased! Feel free to add sausage, or pour into a frozen crust if you'd like more flavor.

Tips:

  • Choose the right asparagus. Look for asparagus that is fresh, firm, and has tight tips. Avoid asparagus that is wilted or has brown spots.
  • Prepare the asparagus properly. Wash the asparagus thoroughly and trim off the tough ends. Cut the asparagus into 1-inch pieces.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This recipe calls for cremini mushrooms, but you can also use other types of mushrooms, such as shiitake, portobello, or oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Season the quiche well. This recipe calls for a simple seasoning of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
  • Bake the quiche until it is set. The quiche is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

This crustless asparagus mushroom quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover asparagus and mushrooms. With its creamy filling and flaky crust, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
