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. :).
