recipe: crustless quiche

as if i could update without putting up a recipe. puh-leeze.

ah, my dear crustless quiche. this recipe has stood by me through my month of madness. it was used for my sister's bridal shower, a coworker's baby shower, and at least one quick dinner. (not counting tonight. it's sitting on my stove cooling as we speak.) it is truly a wondrous thing, this quiche. it's been adapted from a recipe found originally on allrecipes, as so many of my recipes are.

• 4 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups milk or half and half (or some combination of the two)
• large pinch of salt (yeah, i honestly cannot be more specific. maybe like... half a teaspoon? a teaspoon?)
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (whole wheat works as well)
• 4-ish strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 1 1/2 cups-ish of shredded cheese such as cheddar or swiss
• tasty ingredients (chopped reasonably small) such as sauteed onions, shredded carrots, sauteed zucchini, tomatoes, blue cheese, or whatever else you have in your fridge that you think will be tasty in a quiche. experimentation is fun! or, if you don't feel like experimenting, it's still darn tasty with just the cheese and bacon.

preheat the oven to 350. spray a pie pan with nonstick spray. sprinkle the bottom of the pie pan with the bacon and the cheese. in a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. add the salt. slowly whisk in the flour, then stir in your other ingredients. pour this into the pie pan and bake at 350 for... oh let's say 30 minutes, and then check it to see if it's done. generally my oven takes more like 40 minutes. take it out and let it cool for about ten minutes. it can be served warm or cold and makes amazing leftovers.
