Reduce heat to 350°., In a large skillet, saute the mushrooms, onion and red pepper in butter until mushrooms are tender. Drain and set aside. In a large bowl, combine cheese and flour. Stir in the milk, eggs, savory, salt and cayenne until blended. Stir in mushroom mixture.

DELICIOUS BASIL MUSHROOM QUICHE

Steps:

• Unfold pie crust and smooth into 9-inch pie pan, crimp or flute edges. Set aside. Saute the onions and garlic in olive oil until tender and lightly golden. Add the basil and the salt. Saute for about 3-5 more minutes and then set aside. If the pan is fairly dry, add about a teaspoon of olive oil and throw the mushrooms in on low heat. Saute mushrooms until slightly tender. [personal taste] Preheat the oven to 350 (my oven tends to run a little hot, 350 works perfect, 375 browns the quiche too much.) Thoroughly mix the eggs, milk, mustard, and flour and set aside. Combine all the grated cheeses. Sprinkle half of the cheese into the pie shell. Spread the sauteed onions over the cheese. Scatter on the olives and the sauteed mushrooms. Pour the egg-milk mixture into the pie. Cover with the remaining cheese and arrange the tomato slices attractively on top. Bake 38-40 minutes (again, in my oven that's all it takes, the first time you make it... at about 35 minutes start peeking at it occasionally to make sure it's not browning too much) or until the custard is set. Now, scoop the dog toys off the table, throw a diet coke on ice, hit the campy Italian music in the cd player and try to convince the man in your life that "Real men do SO eat quiche!"'
