Nov 06 - Savory Pumkin Quiche

I made this for the Vegatarian CC I used to belong to in Worcester.

Savory Pumpkin Quiche
serves 6

½ cup Gruyere cheese shredded cheese
1 frozen 9-inch pie shell
1 cup low fat milk
3 large eggs
1 tsp chopped fresh sage
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground pepper
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup pumpkin puree

Preheat oven to 400’. Sprinkle cheese on bottom of pie shell. Whisk together milk, eggs, and seasonings. Blend in pumpkin. Put in oven and bake about 10 minutes, then turn down the oven to 350’ and bake an additional 45- 50 minutes. Cool at least 10 minutes before slicing.

If frozen, defrost completely. Heat a 350’ oven about 25 minutes or microwave individual slices.
