Quick veggie quiche - Real Recipes from Mums

Super easy quiche based on leftover vegetables.

Ingredients (serves 4)

1 1/2 cup Ricotta cheese
2 tbsp plain flour
2 x 70g fresh eggs
2 cups cooked assorted vegetables (sweet potato, carrot, broccoli, cauliflower, corns and peas, silverbeet, spinach, etc.)
1/4 cup shredded tasty cheese or Parmesan cheese
salt & pepper

Method

Pre-heat oven at 220 degrees C. Grease a 23cm square baking pan.
In a large bowl, lightly whip eggs seasoned with salt and pepper. Mix in flour followed by Ricotta cheese. Add vegetables to the wet mixture and combine well.
Spread evenly to the baking pan, cover with shredded cheese. Bake until golden brown, about 25-35 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve with salad.

Notes

This is a very light and tasty dish my mum would bake on Mondays when she used up all leftover vegetable from the weekend dinner feast. Somehow it always taste better than the night before.

only two eggs Missey – wow! I have emailed the link to myself and will give it a go… I will use cottage cheese though, as I find Ricotta a bit overbearing

  Oh Jenniw, I know what you mean about kids don’t like the taste of eggs.
  Please scroll down to the response I gave to the other mom.
  You could use tapioca flour instead of eggs that act as binding element so the quiche won’t fall apart when you cut it.
  Let me know how you go, good luck. Missey
