I'm only here for the food

Thoughts and meditations on cooking, travel, and life.

Quiche, a wonder food

Last night was my night to cook dinner, which is normally a happy time for me but this week I was a little sad because I couldn’t afford to go out and buy a bunch of yummy ingredients as I hadn’t been payed yet.

So, after discovering a pre-made pie-crust in the freezer, I decided to make quiche, which is really just leftover bits of veggies and egg plopped into a crust. I decided to use the mushrooms leftover from mushroom marinara the other night, caramelized in a bit of butter then deglazed with whiskey. This went on the bottom of the crust, with the egg and heavy cream on top.

After 35 minutes the quiche was a puffy and wonderful testament to my “cooking yummy food while being poor” skills. It turned into a lovely dinner with the addition of herb roasted potatoes and a lemon-whiskey sauce to go on top.

Ta-ta for now me lovely quiches,

Brandon
