For lack of anything more interesting, I give you yesterday's lunch: broccoli quiche. I saw some beautiful broccoli at the store last week and couldn't resist. I cooked it, had some with lunch one day, and had more than half of it left over. It occurred to me that a quiche would be a good way to use it up, and it was. I threw together a crust, whipped up some eggs and cream, grated a little cheese, and
voilà. Now I have a lot of left-over quiche.
I forgot to sauté a little onion for the quiche. That would have made it even better.
I ate a little less than a quarter of the quiche with green salad for lunch on Monday. Today I'll have it again, but this time with French fries, I think.
Pour varier les plaisirs. Just to change it up a little bit.
We are great fans of quiche as a way of enjoying leftovers of all kinds. Yours looks delicious. Quiche and fries.....what a way to cheer up a gloomy February day.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing a broccoli and smoked herring 'parmentier' for dinner tonight. There must be a broccoli thing happening.
ReplyDeleteOh, that looks delicious. I love you cook types. Step by step instructions and then "VOILA!" That's one it all goes south for me.
ReplyDeleteA real laugh, Mitchell! My Dad would always tell me as we were having difficulties with some woodworking project to always tell anyone that asked, "Oh - no problems at all! It was a piece of cake!" I couldn't help but think of the results some non-cooks might have with quiche!!!

Quiche is a favorite around here. The thought of leftover leftovers made me smile, though we eat them all the time.
ReplyDeleteGreat change-up, Walt! That quiche really looks good. I've given up french fries, but not broccoli! It is in season annd very reasonable so I have been eating it daily!

Oh, to be a cook type and just "throw together a crust"!
ReplyDeleteQuiche freezes pretty well. Yours looks so yummy.
ReplyDeletejean, there are a million ways to do it, aren't there!
ReplyDeletesusan, a broccoli happening! I can dig it!
mitch and mary, as Julia Child used to say, never apologize for your cooking. Or, in mitch's case, your not cooking. ;)
chris, so do we. :)
mary, give up frites? I shudder to think it.
bettyann, lol. You can always "unwrap" one!
evelyn, I didn't think of that. Must try.
