A savory quiche made with unopened Appenzeller cheese block that is slightly past expiration but still safe to eat. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 unopened Appenzeller cheese block (slightly past expiration)
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 cup onion, chopped
- 4 eggs

- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet, sauté the mushrooms and onions until tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Place the pre-made pie crust in a pie dish. Spread the sautéed mushrooms and onions evenly over the crust.
Pour the egg mixture over the mushrooms and onions.
