Source of Recipe
Ridenhour Ranch House Inn
List of Ingredients
One 9-inch unbaked pastry shell or your own pie crust recipe
1 cup grated mixed cheeses: Swiss Monterey Jack, and mild Cheddar
1/4 cup diced sauteed leek
1/2 cup each: chopped mushrooms diced asparagus, diced ham
4 eggs
1 cup half & half
A sprinkle of ground pepper and a dash of
nutmeg Recipe
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread the cheese evenly in the bottom of the unbaked pastry shell and place it on a cookie sheet. To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, we recommend that you place the chopped mushrooms and diced asparagus in a microwaveable bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave on high for about 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool and then strain or squeeze out the water and sprinkle the veggies over the cheese mixture. Top with the diced ham and sauteed leek.
Place the eggs, pepper, and nutmeg in a bowl and whip together, then add the cream and blend well. Pour this mixture into the pastry shell and bake for 45 minutes or until puffed, golden, and firm in the center. Let it rest for just a few minutes before slicing into 6 generous wedges.
