QUICHE
- ROBERT MAYBEE
Robert served a mission in France and brought back this recipe, another for crepes and many pie recipes. 1 - 9 inch pie shell Prepare pie dough. Brush it with the white of an egg, if desired. Prick the dough. Sauté bacon until not quite crisp. Scald milk. Cool slightly and beat together with eggs and spices. Place bacon and cheese on bottom of pie shell. Pour custard mixture over it and bake 35 to 40 minutes or until top is golden brown. Test for doneness as you would a custard. ZUCCHINI AND CHEESE QUICHE - SHELLY NORBY Preheat oven to 350. 9 inch pie shell - Brush with egg whites and prick the bottom and edges 2 zucchini- Wash, then slice into very thin slices. You don't want big thick pieces of zucchini. Cheddar cheese - Grate about 1 - 1 lb. block give or take according to how much cheese you want. It's always better to have more. Prepare the filling- 2 cups of milk Beat together and chill slightly. Place a layer of zucchini and then a layer of cheese, however much you like until you have filled the pie shell about 3/4 full. Pour the chilled mixture over the filling slowly until it just covers all the ingredients. Sprinkle some cheese on top and you are ready to bake. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Let cool and serve. I JUST GOT HOME, THE KIDS ARE HUNGRY, START COOKING, ONE PAN DINNER - JOHN MAYBEE Defrost a package of meat (if you don't have a microwave , start frying in skillet on hot (350 degrees) and keep scraping softened, cooked meat from outside.) Peel and chop a large onion, when the meat has cooked enough to have all the grease, salt and pepper it and throw in the onion. While this is cooking , check out refrigerator for leftover vegetables and other things that might taste good. If you're lucky, there'll be something to snack on while you cook . If the refrigerator has just been cleaned out (i.e. the teenagers were bored the night before and ate everything but the bottle of pickles and whatever it is in the Tupperware on the bottom shelf that doesn't look like it would go in a casserole - what is it anyway), go to the cupboard , stopping on the way to check the skillet. Pick out a couple of cans of vegetables that will go good together, today it is whole corn and stewed tomatoes. After draining grease off the meat, drop in vegetables...juice and all into pan. Open the spice drawer and add small amounts of anything that looks like it will taste right with what you've used so far, in this case I will add garlic powder, marjoram and rosemary. Add enough water to cover and then some. Use the vegetable cans to do this...it will get the last little bit of nutrition/flavor from them and you aren't dirtying any dishes. Let it come to a simmer, taste and balance spices. After it tastes good add about a teaspoonful of salt (trust me!) Then put in some dry noodles, macaroni, shells or such. How much? a cup or two , whatever's in the bag or bags that are open, the more you add the more people it feeds. Just make sure there's a little room in the pan, because its going to expand. Bring to a boil, turn down to simmer and stir occasionally until noodles swell and become soft, probably about 15 minutes. While it's cooking, put together a green salad and set the table. If the kids ask what it is, make up a good, but simple name. If it gets praises, try to remember what you used. If it gets complaints, tell your wife it is her turn tomorrow.
