This colorful quiche is perfect for brunch or lunch. I even like to serve it for our Sunday night supper. Each hearty slice is filled with green beans and mushrooms and topped with tomato and cheddar cheese. It's delicious! -Lee Campbell, Bartow, Florida

Ingredients

  • 1 package (9 ounces) frozen cut green beans
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup diced green pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup crushed saltines (about 8 crackers)
  • 6 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
  • 3/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Directions

  1. Place beans in a saucepan and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 6-8 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain and set aside.
  2. In a small skillet, saute onion in butter until tender. Add mushrooms and green pepper; saute until tender.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream and salt; stir in the beans, mushroom mixture and cracker crumbs. Gradually stir in eggs. Pour into a greased deep-dish 9-in. pie plate. Sprinkle with tomato and cheese.
  4. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before cutting.
