| 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. | 2. Cover just the edges of the pie crust (the lip) with aluminum foil to brevent over browning. | 3. Crack eggs into a large mixing bowl and add the milk, blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute, or beat with a whisk or fork for several minutes until well blended and uniform (The more thoroughly you mix this, the more fluffy and light this dish will be). | 4. Take the frozen chopped spinach and the fresh broccoli and cut them finely or run through food processor until minced and then put into the bowl with the egg mixture. | 5. Thinly slice dime sized slices of the asparagus. | 6. Add asparagus, minced onions, and salt into the mixture and stir well and pour half of the mixture into each pie crust. | 7. Bake the quiches in the oven for 35-45 minutes until center is solid. | 8. Melt the cheddar cheese, either on the stive over low heat, or in the microwave after slicing it up. | 9. Pour half the melted cheddar on each quiche. | 10. Return the quiche to the oven and cook another 5-15 minutes, until quiche is cooked through and the cheese is slightly brown, to well browned, depending on your preference. We prefer barely browned and slightly liquid. | 11. Slice into 1/8ths for one serving. | 12. Variations- try other cheeses like swiss (traditional), herbed cheeses, provelone for a smoky flavor, or even gouda or edam. Other good ingredients to try may be bacon (we use vegetarian bacon, a few strips finely minced as it is a strong flavor), ham, etc. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
