    Recipe Introduction


    No carbohydrate levels available
    Spring Vegetable Quiche
    Makes 5 servings

    CRUST:
    1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice
    1 egg white

    QUICHE:
    1 cup chopped fresh asparagus or broccoli
    1/2 cup fresh or frozen (thawed) whole kernel corn
    1/3 cup finely chopped carrots
    1/3 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
    1/4 cup finely chopped onion
    2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
    1 cup shredded nonfat or reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
    1 cup evaporated skim milk
    1 cup fat-free egg substitute
    2 tablespoons grated nonfat or reduced-fat Parmesan cheese

    To make the crust, combine the brown rice and egg white in a medium-size bowl, and stir to mix well. Coat a 9" deep-dish pie pan with nonstick spray, and use the back of a spoon to pat the mixture over the bottom and sides of the pan, forming an even crust.

    Combine all of the remaining ingredients except for the Parmesan in a large bowl. Stir to mix well, and pour into the rice crust. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top.

    Bake at 375° for about 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a sharp knife inserted in the center of the quiche comes out clean. Remove the dish from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
