Broccoli, Mushroom & Cheddar Quiche with a Brown Rice Crust

I really love frittatas and quiche, but I wanted to try something a little different for a change.  My husband loves brown rice, and I stumbled upon a brown rice crust recipe and thought it might be interesting.  It turned out to be a hit, and it kind of tasted more like a casserole.  I love the flavor of brown rice, so it probably wasn’t too hard to please me, but my husband enjoyed it as well.  This recipe was a little time consuming, but it was worth it in my opinion.  It would be a great option for dinner, lunch, or breakfast, and it is also pretty healthy!  This is a vegetarian recipe, but you could easily throw in some shredded chicken or turkey, sausage, or bacon to make it meat friendly.

Ingredients
  1. 2 cups cooked brown rice
  2. 1/4 cup low fat cheddar cheese, finely grated
  3. 5 eggs
  4. 1 cup skim milk
  5. 2 cups broccoli, cut into bite sized pieces and blanched
  6. 8oz package of mushrooms, chopped
  7. 1 cup low fat sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  8. 4 green onions, sliced
  9. 1 pinch nutmeg (optional)
  10. Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
  1. Mix the rice, finely grated cheese and one egg in a bowl. Press the rice mixture into a pie plate, about 1/4 inch thick.
  2. Bake in a preheated 450 degree F oven until the edges and bottom just start turning golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes. Turn oven to broil on high for 2-3 more minutes until crust looks crisp.
  3. Mix the remaining eggs, milk, broccoli, mushrooms, sharp cheddar cheese and green onions in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust.
  4. Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven until golden brown and set in the center, about 30 to 35 minutes.

    Making this tonight, but using spinach instead of mushrooms, and a white onion in place of the green. I’ll let you know how the changes taste! 🙂
