Swiss Chard Quiche

Since some of our Swiss chard was ready to harvest, I had to look up some Swiss Chard recipes. Cause come on, who has really had chard before? I saw a quiche recipe and decided to try it. Here's how it went...

First I cut the leaves that were ready.

Then I gathered the rest of the ingredients: 4 eggs, an onion, 2 1/2 cups of cheese (I used Mozzarella and cheddar because that's what we had in the fridge), 1 cup milk, olive oil, salt & pepper. I also decided to add mushrooms to the recipe.

Start by chopping up the chard, 1/2 of the onion, and the mushrooms.

Saute them in a pan with the olive oil.

I added the chard after about a minute, because I figured like spinach it wouldn't take very long to cook. I was right.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and add the shredded cheese and milk.

Then fold in the sauteed chard mixture.

Pour into a pie dish that has been coated in cooking spray. Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 35-45 minutes.

Once it is golden brown and you can cut into it without excess liquid escaping, it's done.

I also made a fruit salad.

I don't know why I always like fruit salads better than the fruits by themselves.

Ready to serve.

It was really good. I would recommend the recipe to anyone looking for an easy meal. It would also be a great dish to make for potlucks.
