This is my go-to recipe to take to any type of pot-luck gathering. So easy and so delicious. Combine protein and veggies that you have on hand to make a good combination. It’s a very flexible recipe and has never failed me.

• 6 Eggs (more or less can be used – depending on your supply!)
• 8 oz of ricotta cheese or heavy cream or cottage cheese
• salt and pepper

Blend those ingredients in a blender. Add 1 Tbl any type of flour for thickness. Or, you can substitute a few tablespoons of cooked sweet potato and leave out the flour.

Apply butter to your preferred oven proof dish. Layer whatever ingredients you have available in the bottom. Things like:

• chopped whole onion (can be sautéd, or not)
• salmon chunks, or other protein
• cooked sweet potatoes, or chopped broccoli, or zucchini, or any vegetables you have,

Top with 1/2 – 1 cup grated strong cheddar cheese. Amount can depend on your supply, and your budget, but the more the better!

Optional: sprinkle feta cheese around; other herbs or seasoning as desired.

Pour liquid egg mixture over everything. Bake at 400 for about 30 minutes. I like to test doneness with an internal thermometer (I LOVE these things – absolutely changed my life in terms of baking and cooking! No more guesswork. You have a measurable way to determine doneness!). Temperature for quiche is 165 – 185 Fahrenheit.

Allow to cool a bit. Cut into squares. Can be eaten hot, warm or cold! Leftovers are great.
