Crustless Vegetable Quiche

I love this dish for the colours and the pesto!

From: BBC Good Food 101 Veggie Dishes

Ingredients:

• 1 TBSP vegetable oil
• 1 yellow and 1 orange pepper, cut into quarters and seeded
• 2 courgettes/zucchini, cut into chunks
• 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 100 ml/ 3 1/2 fl oz milk
• 2 TBSP green pesto (or more!)
• salt and pepper

Directions:

1) Heat the oven to 200C/Gas Mark 6/fan oven 180C/392F
2) Heat the oil in a large frying pan.
3) Add the peppers, courgettes/zucchini, and onion over a high heat.







4) Stir for 2-3 minutes until lightly charred.
5) Grease or oil a 2 liter/3 1/2 pint ovenproof dish







6) Transfer the vegetables to the dish.








 7) In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, pesto and seasoning.







8) Pour over the vegetables, trying to get some of the egg mixture over all of the vegetables even though it will slide to the bottom.
9) Bake for 25 minutes or until firm to the touch in the center.

As you can see from the pictures below, for the size of dish that I used (no measurement on it, but I knew everything would fit) the vegetables should have been chopped up more.

Feta, Spinach and Onion Quiche

We had a running dinner on Thursday meaning that one apartment would make an appetizer, another the entree, and another the desert and you would 'run' from one apartment from another with different groups of people at each one. My flatmate and myself made a quiche and mimosa.
