Inspired by Donald's fantastic pizza quiche, yet saddened by the fact that I was out of pizza sauce and mozzarella, I decided to come up with a similarly themed quiche. It was quite good!
1 tsp olive oil
2 oz softened cream cheese
2 eggs
3 Tbsp cream
2 Tbsp grated parmesan
1 tsp oregano, or to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar (or other hard cheese)
3 thin slices of tomato, each slice cut in half
- Spread olive oil in 8" cake pan
- Beat together eggs and cream cheese
- add parmesan, oregano and cream
- spread cheddar onto bottom of pan
- pour egg mixture over top
- arrange tomato slices in a circle
- sprinke more oregano, if desired
- bake at 375F for 30 min
- slice into six pieces and try to resist eating the whole thing.
