Tarragon and Thyme Quiche image

One of the very few recipes I've seen that use tarragon. My favorite is with smoked Swiss cheese, bacon, almond milk, graham cracker crust and all of the other optional ingredients.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 Pie shaped wedges, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 eggs, if using a 9-inch pie shell or 5 eggs, if using a 10-inch pie shell
2/3 cup coconut milk, if using a 9-inch pie shell or 3/4 cup milk, if using a 10-inch pie shell
1 (9 inch) chocolate crumb pie shell or 1 (10 inch) pie crusts
4 ounces gouda cheese (shredded or sliced 1/16 inch thick) or 6 ounces cheese, if using a 10-inch pie shell
1/4 lb cooked chicken (optional) or 1/4 lb cooked shrimp, diced (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup bell pepper, chopped (optional)
1/3 cup onion, chopped (optional)
1/3 cup celery, chopped (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
1/8 teaspoon white pepper (optional)
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional)
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried tarragon or 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Line the pie crust (I like graham cracker crust best, gives the quiche a slightly sweet flavor) with the smoked cheese. Other cheeses can be used, but the smoked cheeses, whatever type, gives the quiche a superior flavor over that of plain cheeses.
  • If you like your vegetables a bit less crunchy, lightly saute the onions, bell peppers, and celery.
  • Mix all ingredients except meat together and pour into pie shell.
  • Sprinkle with meat.
  • Cover with tin foil and bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes for a 9-inch pie shell, or 60 to 75 minutes for a 10-inch pie shell, turning quiche one-half turn halfway through cooking, or until egg in center is set.
  • Remove tinfoil and broil 2 to 5 minutes until lightly browned on top (this is just for appearance).
