Crustless Salmon Quiche - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 cup salmon, cooked
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
5 large eggs
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream (optional)
1 green onion, sliced (optional)
Preparation
-
Butter a 9 inch pie plate.
Toss the salmon and cheese with the flour, and place in the bottom of the buttered pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
Pour egg mixture over the cheese and salmon.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
Serve hot, top each piece with a dollop of sour cream and sliced green onions.
Note: I use leftover salmon to make this, and I usually bake my salmon with spices, including plenty of garlic--you may want to add a little garlic to this recipe if you didn't cook your salmon this way.
Lower Carb/Gluten Free Version: You can omit the flour if you choose to, I think it makes the whole recipe a bit wetter that way, though--for my picky kids' sake, I like to make it a little drier. We call it \"salmon pie\" and even the kids who \"hate\" eggs eat this one. :).
