Quiche

Quiche can be an elegant dinner or a wway to get rid of some things in your fridge,whatever you prefer.

Start by meking your crust or you can buy it  already made.

Homemade Crust: 
11/4 cups of Flour
1/4 teas salt
1/2 cup cold butter (cubed)
1/4 cup cold water

I use a food processor. Put flour and salt in food processor bowl and give it quick pulse,
add the cubed,cold butter to the flour and salt , pulse until it resembles small peas,
Add cold water and pulse till the dough forms a ball. Take it out of the bowl and flatten
into a small dish and wrap in plastic. Put in fridge for about 4 hours.
When you are ready to use the dough to make your crust take it out of the fridge and let it sit on your counter
for about 15 minutes before rolling it out. Roll it out with a floured rolling pin and lightly flour your working
surface. Roll to fit a 8-9 inch pie plate. Prick the bottom of crust before filling.

Put the rest of the cheese on top of Quiche.

Place Quiche on a cookie sheet and bake  at 400. for about 40 minutes or till set.

Use low fat cheese  half skim milk  you can ever make it without the crust.
