Husband: hey I'm home...you OK?
Me: no honey I'm fine nope been a good day, heya why don't you hang with the boys a minute while I scoop half cooked egg out of one quiche, scrape burnt crust off the other and try to chisel off the now dried on flour and water paste that is everywhere-heehee insert insane giggle here complete with spinning eye
I am in complete control, no one is dead, I still have a sense of humor, life is good, I need to go to bed.
Hey that's almost poetry. hunh.
Ham and Swiss Quiche---oven 375˚ and 325˚
1/2 a double pie crust recipe or double the quiche recipe and use both
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup shredded swiss cheese
2 cups chopped ham
dash of pepper
lay pie crust in the bottom of the pie pan
crimp edges, don't prick the bottom
cover with foil bake at 375 for 5 minutes
remove foil bake for 5 more minutes
meanwhile beat eggs, add milk beat again
stir in cheese and ham
pour into partially baked crust, sprinkle with pepper
finish baking at 325˚ for 40 minutes or until center is set
relax, put your feet up, read a book or alternately run around huffing and sweating trying not to scream-totally your choice
Peace and Love-
You get an A+ for effort.
ReplyDeleteWow...you are awesome! I would of gave up. But you kept on going :) Hope your family appreciates all your efforts!
ReplyDeleteI feel breathless from just reading this ... phew! Hey, you're right, no one died so its all good! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd the quiche looks and sounds yummy regardless!
haha Gotta love teens! ;) I could see/hear the convo as I read it. Isn't it funny how teens think they're all unique and all-knowing and yet we were all the same at that age? I must have done the same thing to my parents 10 times!
ReplyDeleteLove the quiche bake! It made me hungry for ham so I took some out from the freezer. I think I'll do something w/ lentils... hmm...
so been about the quiches lately... easy to make- kinda sorta (why do I always insist on making my crusts from scratch- you too?) cook them, freeze them/ eat them hot, room temperature- with hot sauce, salt & pepper... so good in theory, then toddler throws a tantrum and the other pees on the floor- good times...
