CHEESY-PEPPER APPETIZER QUICHE

Category: Quiche and Savory Tarts / Tartlettes

1 1/2 cups Longhorn cheese, shredded
2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1 1/2 cups chopped peppers, saute in garlic-oil
2 cups light cream
6 large eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp white pepper
Dash of Tabasco sauce
Sweet paprika or cayenne

Grease a 13x9 inch pan and line it with your favorite pastry. Preheat the oven to 425 and bake crust for 6 minutes. Cool. Toss cheese with 1 tbsp flour and sprinkle it on the bottom of crust. Top with peppers.

Beat the eggs, adding the cream, salt, pepper, and Tabasco sauce. Pour it all over the peppers and cheese. Sprinkle with your choice of sweet paprika or cayenne. Reduce oven temperature to 325 and bake your quiche for 55-60 minutes or until it is set.

Shake the quiche and if it does not wobble in the center, then it is done. Also, cracks will appear when it is done. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 15 minutes before attempting to cut it into small squares for appetizers.
