Avocado Quiche Recipe

I live in Northern California and we’ve been enjoying the very best prices on avocados lately. I’ve paid even less than a dollar, believe it or not. Okay, that was just once, but still… I love avocados, they are my very favorite food.

Here’s a recipe for an Avocado Quiche from the Holland Inn, in Bar Harbor, Maine.

Avocado Quiche
Ingredients:
This is by far Evin’s favorite dish. Try replacing the fresh tomato with picante, well drained! Yummy! Makes 2 quiches Serves 6-8 slices per quiche.
1 cup sour cream
4 eggs, beaten
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
dash of salt & black pepper to taste 8 scallions, chopped
2 ripe med. tomatoes, chopped then drained
2 ripe avocado, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
2 – 9 inch deep pie shells

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°.

Combine sour cream, eggs, salt and pepper. Mix well. Add cheese, mix well. Stir in scallions and tomatoes.

Lay avocado slices on the bottom of pie shells. There should be just enough slices to cover the bottom. Pour cheese mixture over avocado slices and spread out evenly.

Bake 40-45 minutes, until set and golden and puffy. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Top with a spoonful of sour cream and fresh chopped avocado, scallion and tomatoes.
