GREEK VEGETABLE QUICHE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. On lightly floured surface, unroll pie crust. If necessary, roll out crust with rolling pin until even. Line 9-inch pie plate with pie crust; flute edge as desired with spoon or fork. Line crust with sheet of foil; fill with pie chain, uncooked rice or dried beans to keep pie crust from bubbling up. (Or do double duty and roast vegetables in foil liner while baking crust.)
• Bake about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat eggs and milk with whisk until smooth. Stir in salt and pepper; set aside. Prepare vegetables and herbs for filling.
• Press excess moisture from vegetables; place in large bowl. Add parsley and mint; toss. Arrange vegetable mixture in partially baked pie crust. Pour egg mixture over vegetables. Sprinkle evenly with crumbled cheese.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean and center barely jiggles when quiche is moved. Remove from oven; cool at least 20 minutes before cutting and serving quiche.

GREEK QUICHE

Steps:

• If its what I think you're talking about it's kind of like a quiche of some sort? It's somewhat easy to make if you know how to make bechamel sauce. So to make bechamel you melt half a stick of butter and add in 1 cup of flour and mix those over a low heat. Then you stir in 1.5 cups of milk and you let that sit on the low heat until it starts boiling. It will thicken as it boils and once its at kind of a thicker consistency then you take it off the stove and mix in 2 eggs. And then you just throw in whatever you want. For the one I made last week I had sauteed onions, mushrooms, and spinach and add those to the bechamel and then a whole bunch of Parmesan cheese. I mixed those and then put them on top of the puff pastry that I bought from trader joes and baked it for 20 minutes.
