* (refrigerated section of your grocery store)
** peeled, diced green chiles (preferably fresh or, if
canned, Hatch, New Mexico brand)Pre-heat oven to 375 F. In
a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until light yellow and
slightly foamy.
Chop onion and sautee in butter until soft and yellow. Add
chopped artichoke bottoms for the last few minutes. Pour
into egg mixture. Add remaining ingredients and stir until
well blended.
Place pie crust into 10-inch straight-sided oven-safe
quiche dish. (We use two with fluted sides.) Pull crust
gently into place and flute with fingers. Pour egg mixture
into dish. Bake for approximately 45 minutes until top is
nicely brown and quiche does not "give" when pressed with a
gentle finger.
Serve hot, sliced into 8 pieces; or wrap tightly in plastic
wrap, refrigerate and use as much as one week later. Serves
8.
NOTE This recipe can be made "guilt free" by substituting
Egg Beaters, skim milk, low-fat cheese, non-creamed corn
(drained), salt-substitute and margarine.
Suggested accompaniments: Salsa (ours is home-made), any
type of hot sauce (we serve both red and green Tobasco),
sour cream and/or more green chile.JM.
At The W.J. Marsh House Victorian B&B we usually precede
the quiche with sliced melon, and serve it with home-fried
potatoes with pimiento and green pepper, our piquant
Southwest-style cornbread, and chorizo (spicy Mexican
sausage). W.J. Marsh House Victorian Bed & Breakfast
