Some cool simple recipe for quiche images:
Refinement :
Spring Dinner

Image by wlayton
For a change, I decided to whip up a quiche recipe that The Missus came up with a few years ago, which we generally call "breakfast quiche". Basically, take a regular quiche recipe but instead of a pastry crust, make potato hash browns.
Tonight’s dinner was a leek and tomato quiche, with asparagus and a simple green salad. Tasted like spring.
Refinement :
Quiche Lorraine

A simple meal when you’ve just paid the government a small fortune. (served with mini croissants, brie cheese and fresh, organic asparagus). This is the quiche before it has gone into the oven to bake. My son Patrick asked me to bake this recipe from a book he brought home from his school library. We also tried the chocolate mousse dessert last night, but it did not gel. My other son, Sean, who takes a cooking class at school, has a better recipe for the mousse, so we are going to try that one later. Instead, I served carrot cake.

If you don’t want to buy premade crust just use your basic recipe. Here is a no fail pie crust recipe from Recipezaar as well as recipes from that site.
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 3/4 cups vegetable shortening
1 egg
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/2 cup ice water
In a large mixer bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
Add the shortening and beat until mixture is crumbly, about 2 minutes.
In a small bowl beat the egg well and add the vinegar and water.
Pour over flour and beat until well combined, about 1 minute. Form dough into 4 balls, wrap in plastic and refrigerate overnight. – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -

Place about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese in the bottom of the crust.
Top with a few green onions, and then some chopped pimientos.
In a small bow, whisk together the eggs, half and half cream, salt, cayenne and Parmesan cheese.
Divide the mixture between each muffin tin to within 1/4 inch from the top.

Turkey and swiss cheese quiche
Preparation Time 10 minutes
Cooking Time 15 minutes
Ingredients (serves 4)
1 large ready rolled shortcrust pastry sheet, thawed
125g sliced turkey breast
2 green onions, sliced
2/3 cup grated swiss cheese
4 eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup cream
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
salt and pepper
Method
Preheat oven to 170°C. Line a lightly greased quiche tin of 24cm diameter with the pastry sheet. Trim away and discard excess pastry.
Bake pastry shell for 15 minutes, or until just cooked. If the pastry has any bubbles, smooth them over by pressing very lightly with a clean tea towel. Take care not to break through the pastry.
Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients, whisking together lightly. Pour the mixture into the pastry case. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden and firm.
Serve hot or warm with a simple salad.
Notes & tips
As long as any cooked turkey meat was refrigerated within two hours of cooking, it will last in the fridge for up to four days. Leftover stuffing should be stored separately in an airtight container.

THE CRUST RECIPE!!
This generous recipe enables you to make a nice edge on your crust, whether you’re building it in a 9-inch pie pan or a 10-inch springform tart pan.
Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter Up to 3 tablespoons cold water, milk, or buttermilk
Instructions:
Place the flour and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Cut the butter into slices, add to the processor, and buzz several times, until the mixture is uniform and resembles coarse meal. (If you don’t have a food processor, use a pastry cutter or 2 forks instead.)
Continue to process in quick spurts as you add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time. As soon as the dough adheres to itself when pinched, stop adding water and turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Gather it gently into a ball.
Roll the dough into a circle 11 inches or so in diameter (slightly bigger than a I 0-inch round). Lift the dough and ease it into a 9-inch pie pan or 10-inch springform tart pan, nudging it gently into the corners. Form a generous, even edge all the way around the sides. If you’re not going to use the crust right away, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate or freeze it until use.
warning: delicious!! enjoy!!
