1 (9-inch) quiche

Ingredients

  • 1 (9-inch) unbaked deep dish pie crust

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 tomatoes, peeled and sliced

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons dried basil

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • ½ cup milk

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 ½ cups shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake pie shell in preheated oven for 8 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion until soft; remove from skillet. Sprinkle tomato slices with flour and basil, then sauté in the same skillet for 1 minute on each side. Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl until smooth; season with salt and pepper.

  3. Spread 1 cup shredded cheese in the bottom of pie crust. Layer onions over cheese, and top with tomatoes. Cover with egg mixture; sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese on top.

  4. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue to bake until filling is puffed and golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.
