Asparagus Ham Quiche Recipe
Ingredients
2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen cut asparagus, thawed
1 pound fully cooked ham, chopped
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup chopped onion
6 eggs
2 cups milk
1-1/2 cups buttermilk baking mix
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions
In two greased 9-in. pie plates, layer the asparagus, ham, cheese and onion. In a bowl, beat eggs. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Divide mixture in half and pour over asparagus mixture in each pie plate. Bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Yield: 12 servings.
Rather than frozen, when available, fresh is much better IMHO The Swiss cheese gives it a ‘nutty’ flavor.
CARROTS
Normally, these are not served as a side dish on our table. Usually used in soups, stews. and cakes. However, last night had a few which need to be cooked. Improvised with the following.
Cleaned the carrots (no scraping) cut them into coins about 1/4 inch thick. Plopped the into some olive oil in a skillet. Placed the lid on and let them cook till fork tender. Once cooked enough, added about 1/2- 1 Tablespoon of brown sugar, a pinch of nutmeg, pinch of cinnamon and a small squirt of honey. With the moist steam these cooked up nicely and very, very tasty. Not too sweet and the nutmeg/cinnamon added a unique taste. Ha..no more having to live with peas and carrots.
