Happy New
Year 2015 everyone!
First of all
I have to apologize for my absent for the past whole year in 2014. Many things in my personal life had happened
and needed to be taken care of. But I will
not go into any details about what was going on with my life (sorry for not
sharing!). There were some good news (nooo! I did not win a lotto!) and bad
news that keep my life interesting and wonderful! (at least that what I
thought!)
Let’s move
on to my first post of the year “Spinach, mushroom, and sweet potato
quiche.” I love sweet potato! Do
you? Cooking in the microwave for a few minutes
(depends on the size) and eating plain without anything on it is my instant
joy. But adding it into the egg dish for
breakfast is such amazingly amazing!
What you
need: can be served 4-6 people
1 large
sweet potato (yam) shredded into 3 cups
5-6 large
eggs
1/4 cup
onion, chopped
3 cups fresh
spinach (or frozen)
2 cups
mushroom, chopped
1 1/2 cups
shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup milk
2 small
yellow bell peppers (one chopped, another cut across)
1 tbsp.
olive oil
Salt and
pepper to taste
Preheat the
oven to 400`F
1. add a
pinch of salt and pepper into shredded sweet potato and gently toss together
with your hands. Then spread them over the pie pan (spray your pan slightly
with cooking spray first to prevent the sweet potato stick to the pan. I didn’t!
L ) and onto
the rim evenly. Place in the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes. Take it out if
the edges start to burn and cover with foil.
When the time is up, take it out and turn the oven down to 350`F.
2. add olive
oil in the sauté pan over medium high heat, add onion and cook for a few
minutes, then add mushroom, bell pepper, and spinach and cook until all the
vegetables are wilted and let it cool down a bit.
3. beaten
the eggs in the large bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper, then add milk and 1
cup of cheese, stir to combine. Add the cooked vegetables (it may still warm,
but ok!) into the eggs and gently stir to combine. Pour over the egg filling
into the sweet potato crust, and arrange cut yellow bell pepper on top as well
as another 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
4.
serve immediately with any of your favorite hot sauce or salsa! Enjoy!
looks yummy !!
