Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 c Grated Cheese
1 c Half & Half
4 lg Eggs
1 Unbaked Pie Shell
1 c Filling
1 t Salt
1 1/2 ts Herbs (your choice)
1/8 ts Black pepper

Preheat oven to 350F. Beat the eggs. Brush pie shell
with beaten egg and pre-bake for 5 minutes. Allow to
cool for a couple of minutes. Combine cheese and
filling material and place in pie shell. Dust with
salt, pepper and herbs. Combine half & half and eggs
and pour over all. Leave a little room for expansion.
Bake 30-40 minutes (golden brown and a knife inserted
in the center comes out clean). Allow to rest for
about 10 minutes before serving. It is a good idea to
place your pie pans on a cookie sheet just in case
this boils over.

Re: measurements. Since you generally buy a dozen
eggs, frozen pie shells come two to a pack, half and
half is sold in Pints and it is easy to buy a big
enough brick of cheese, I usually double this and make
two quiches. They freeze well and make great leftovers
and are a wonderful breakfast.

Re: fillings ... anything you want. Suggest spinach,
chopped brocoli, onion, green pepper, crab, shrimp,
sausage, bacon, ham, turkey, etc.
