Broccoli-cheese pie
May. 30th, 2008 07:05 amI promise I'll post some substantive thoughts NOT about food at some point. My part-time job and the freelancing are taking up a lot of my brain power these days.
Anyhow, I tried this recipe last night, and I thought it was fabulous. J. liked it, too. I subbed in some chives (of course) for some of the onion it called for, and I used fried bits of soy sausage instead of the bacon. Otherwise, I pretty much followed the recipe. I did use more breadcrumbs for the "crust" than they called for, about twice as much. It comes out of the oven really puffy and golden, and then deflates a bit. It's a bit like a quiche, except the cubes of bread give it more substance, and it's a bit lower-fat and less filled with cholesterol than a traditional quiche.
