Swiss Shrimp Quiche

Yes, men really do eat quiche and they will absolutely love this one. Don made it twice this week, once for the girls when they came over to set the Christmas tree up for us and again, when we had special company for lunch. There were not even crumbs left over, trust me.

 

  • 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
  • 12 large shrimp, tails removed
  • 1 tbsp. finely chopped celery, ribs removed
  • 1 tbsp. finely chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp. grated onion
  • 1 tbsp. flour
  • pinch of salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup cream
  • 1 9 inch unbaked pie shell
  • grated parmesan cheese

Clean the shrimp and cut each one in quarters equally. Toss together the cheese, shrimp, grated onion, celery, parsley, flour and salt, making sure it is well mixed.

Beat the eggs lightly and gradually stir in the cream. Add this to the cheese mixture, stirring well to combine. Pour into the pie shell.

Bake is a preheated 375 degree oven for 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Serve this with a beautiful spinach strawberry salad and you have a winner. You could always add a glass of chilled white wine as well.
