Ingredients

Tomato and Zucchini Quiche (Inspired by the Basic Quiche Recipe from Real Simple Magazine)

Yields: 2 Complete Quiche and 8 Large and Tasty Servings

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large onion, diced

4 tomatoes, sliced, lightly salted and patted dry

2 medium zucchinis, sliced

1/2 pint grape tomatoes, sliced in half

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped

4 eggs

3/4 cup half-and-half

8 ounces Gruyère, grated

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 store-bought frozen piecrust in tins

Directions

Heat oven to 375° F.

In a large skillet, over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the onion, zucchini, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Cover and cook until the onions and zucchini are softened, 5 to 7 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and half-and-half. Stir in the Gruyère, herbs, nutmeg, the remaining salt and pepper, and the onion and zucchini mixture.

Place the pie crusts on a foil-lined baking sheet. Scrape the egg mixture into the pie crusts; they will be very full. Top with sliced grape tomatoes. Bake until the filling is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

I was reading this post on your blog, and wishing that I had this quiche for lunch instead of ham and cheese. I adore quiche!
