MOM'S TUNA QUICHE



Mom's Tuna Quiche image

My mom used to make this when I was a kid. Love the flavor and it is SO quick and EASY! Serve with salad, fruit and muffins for brunch or lunch or bring it to a pot luck. Another variation I do is with chicken chunks, spinach, mushrooms, scallions and cheddar cheese. I usually make one of each since the pie crusts come in...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large eggs
1 c milk
1 1/2 c swiss cheese, grated
2 can(s) tuna (water-packed, well drained)
2 c mushrooms, fresh
1/2 c chopped scallions (green onions)
seasoning salt & pepper to taste
1 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. Wash and chop mushrooms or use pre-sliced. Sautee in butter until moisture is removed.
  • 2. While mushrooms are cooking, chop scallions, grate cheese and drain tuna
  • 3. Place one (uncooked) pie crust in a deep-dish pie plate. Top with tuna, cheese, sautéed mushrooms and scallions.
  • 4. Beat together eggs, milk and seasonings and pour on top of tuna mixture. (You can add a sprinkle more of cheese on top if you like.) Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. You can protect the crust edges with foil, but I have found that I don't need to. Let cool 10 minutes before cutting.

SMALL TUNA AND BROCCOLI CRUST-LESS QUICHE



Small Tuna and Broccoli Crust-Less Quiche image

I threw this together for lunch today, I'm doing a low carb diet right now and thought a quiche would be a nice change from a salad type lunch. I didn't specify what kind of cheese to use but please do not use a mild cheese like mozzarella or a mild cheddar because it will not have enough flavor for the quiche. I used goat cheese that had been immersed in wine, but an extra sharp cheddar, gruyere, or swiss would work really well. ***You will need a 6-inch pie plate for this recipe, you can POSSIBLY use a normal size pie plate if you double the recipe, but proceed with that at your own risk.
