This was adapted from a recipe I found on the net, but I added julienne onion to the peppers. This is a meal in itself, or you could have a small slice with a meat dish. For those that like to have brunch, it's a bit different to your traditional quiche recipes. If you love cheese, you could add 1/2 cup of your favorite to the egg mixture, then pour over peppers. Ingredients:
1 green pepper (cut in strips) |
1 sweet red pepper (cut in strips) |
1 yellow sweet pepper (cut in strips) |
1 small onion (cut into strips) |
9 inches pie crusts (unbaked) |
1 tablespoon margarine |
4 eggs |
1/2 cup half-and-half |
1/2 cup water |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 teaspoon basil |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
salt and pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, sauté pepper strips and onions in margarine until soft but not limp.
2. In a bowl, combine eggs, half-n-half, water, garlic, basil, and cayenne.
3. Spoon peppers into unbaked pie shell.
4. Pour egg mixture over peppers.
5. Bake at 375°F for 50-55 minutes until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
