No one refuses to eat their vegetables when you serve this colorful quiche. My family loves the rich flavors that develop when the veggies caramelize. —Lily Julow, Gainesville, Florida

Ingredients

Pastry for single-crust pie (9 inches)
1 small eggplant, peeled

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese
6 eggs
