This is somewhat like a quiche. The crust consists of Cheddar cheese, which is delicious. A must try. Ingredients:
1 head fresh broccoli, chopped |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 onion, chopped |
1/4 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 cup half-and-half cream |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
3 eggs, beaten |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Bring about 1 inch water to a boil in a pot. Place the chopped broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water, and steam 5 minutes, or until tender but firm.
3. In a bowl, mix the Cheddar cheese, 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and mustard. Mix in 1/4 cup butter until evenly moist. Press into the bottom and sides of an 8 inch pie dish.
4. Melt the 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the onion and mushrooms until tender. Stir in 2 tablespoons flour, half and half, 1 teaspoon salt, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat. Mix in steamed broccoli. Gradually stir in eggs. Transfer to the pie crust.
5. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and continue baking 20 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
