How To Make asparagus and mushroom quiche

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350.
  • Step 2
    In one skillet saute onions, mushrooms, and garlic with olive oil.
  • Step 3
    In another skillet saute asparagus in olive oil ...add salt and pepper...I deglazed my pan with a little white wine...but not necessary I just like the flavor. You want the asparagus a little tender but don't overcook.

    In a bowl whisk together eggs and milk...add a little salt and pepper. Add 1 cup of the cheese.
  • Step 5
    Evenly divide the asparagus and onion/mushroom mixture between the two pie shells. Pour the egg mixture over...1/2 in each shell
  • Step 6
    Bake for 30 min on 350.
  • Step 7
    while quiche is baking fry bacon and crumble.
  • Step 8
    After 30 min top the quiche with remaining 1 cup of cheese and bacon ... put back in the oven for another 5 min.
