GRAYCE'S LOBSTER QUICHE

I know, I know, the weather is hot and you should cook outside, but as you know I am going to be putting out a cook book so I am creating as many recipes as possible.  This is one I created years ago one time when I was having company.  It is so good, you won't mind that you have to turn on the oven.

GRAYCE'S LOBSTER QUICHE

Pastry for 1- 9 or 10 inch deep dish pie plate
4 finely chopped green onions
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cup swiss cheese grated
2 cups of cooked lobster meat cut into pieces
6 eggs beaten
2 to 3 tablespoons of Marsala wine
1 1/2 cups of heavy cream
pinch of nutmeg
salt and pepper

Line your pie plate with the pastry. Prick the sides and bottom with a fork.  Line it with parchment paper or foil wrap and put in a layer of beans.  This will keep the dough from shrinking all up.  Bake at 400 degrees for about 8 or 9 minutes, just until lightly browned.  Lower oven heat to 375 degrees.

Put the lobster meat on the bottom of the pie crust in an even layer.  Saute the onions in the butter and put over the lobster.  Whip the eggs with a whisk, add the cream, the wine, the nutmeg, and the grated swiss cheese,  salt and pepper.  Mix well.  Pour over the lobster.  Bake at 375 degrees for about 30 to 35 minutes or until set.

Oh so rich, but oh so decadent and good!  Great with a fresh green salad.  And of course a glass of crisp, chilled white wine.  What a perfect meal for a special brunch.  Or anytime.

Thanks for stopping in today
