Ingredients for this Vegetarian Quiche Recipe:
- 1 (9 inch) deep-dish pie crust
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup sliced onion
- ½ cup chopped green bell pepper
- ½ cup mushrooms, sliced
- ½ cup chopped zucchini
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons dried basil
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- ½ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 ½ cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese
Directions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and zucchini. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender. Set aside to cool.
- Make Quiche Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, milk, flour, dried basil, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Layer the Crust: Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Layer the sautéed vegetables evenly into the crust. Arrange tomato slices on top.
- Add the Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and top with shredded Colby-Jack cheese.
- Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. You can test doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
