Yummy Quiche

Today we went to the doc for A's one month check-up.  She is actually 5 weeks old now, but that's okay.  She is doing well, gaining weight and length.  She's also moved up a little in the percentiles.  Doc says that she read the manual before she came and seems to be a healthy happy baby.  :)

The other thing we did today was make a great quiche for supper.  We were going to simply have "breakfast for dinner" but I suggested a quiche since it is definitely cool enough to bake something right now.  Here's the recipe.

Crust:
1.5 C flour total (I used 1/2 cup each of chickpea, brown rice, and casava)
2 tsp guar gum
1/3 C butter (small chunks added gradually to the flour mixture)
enough ice water to form a ball but not be too sticky

To make the crust mix the flours and gum.  Add in the butter small chunk at a time.  Add in the water a tsp at a time until a ball forms.  Roll the ball on parchment paper or a floured surface (since the flours are so pricey I tend to use parchment paper).  Fit to pie dish and set aside.

Basic quiche egg mixture: 4 eggs with 1 1/4 C milk or milk/cream mixture.  Add in what you've got laying around -- we used spinach, sauteed mushrooms, and bacon.  Then cover in cheese. 

Bake at 375 for about 40-45 minutes.  It is done when you insert a knife or toothpick and it comes out clean, it will also wiggle a bit but not resonate when you shake the pie plate in the oven.  Remove from oven and let cool then serve.  Here's a pic:
