2 Flavours in 1Quiche (Wholemeal Bread Crust)

 

I'm a typical mother and housewife that believe in recycle and "DON'T WASTE FOOD" could be my favourite phrase. I have some Mascarpone, some broccoli, a few slices of bread and some mushroom left in my fridge from my previous meal. So why not make something out of these superb staples. And sometimes you will never know how this new recipe could bring smiles on your children's faces or even hubby's. And Bingo! my family loved this 2 Flavours in 1 Quiche. I made a half Seafood and a half Vegan quiche with a healthier crust this time, wholemeal bread for it's crust.

Ingredients

6-8 slices of Wholemeal Bread

4 tablespoon Margarine

200 gm Seafood of your choice

1/2 cup Broccoli

1/4 cup Mushroom, sliced

100 gm Mascarpone Cheese

3 Eggs

1 cup Mozzarella Cheese (grated)

1/2 Tomato, sliced

1/2 Tomato, chopped chunks

1 Medium Onions, chopped chunks

Salt & Pepper to taste

Dried Oregano & Parsley

Methods

1. Greased bread with either butter.. Line them in a Oven proof glassware or pan.

2. Pre-bake them in a 160°C Oven for 5 minutes. You don't want to toast them brown, just need to harden the bread, so they will not turn soggy.

3. Cut the seafood, I used squids and prawn. Marinate them with salt & pepper. Precook the seafood, to avoid sogginess when baking because seafood then to release liquid when cooking. Do not saute for too long, do not cook the seafood. Set aside.

4. Use a pan, drizzled little olive oil, to sauté the Mushroom and broccoli. Saute for 2 minutes or till the broccoli is soft or you prefer crispy broccoli then you might sauté them for shorter time. Set aside.

5. Use an oil free non stick pan, grill the tomato slice, so they look dried.

6. Mix Mascarpone Cheese & Eggs together, whisk them well and add salt & pepper to taste.

7. Put seafood on one side of the baking pan and broccoli mushroom on the other side, pour egg mixture and 1 cup of cheese on top of the fillings. Lastly, Sprinkle some Mozarella at the top.

8. Bake for 40 minutes at 200°C. Use a sharp knife, cut the middle of the quiche, if knife comes out dry then your quiche is done.
