Pittsburgh Pierogi Pizza Quiche/ week 40 - may 24, 2010



There is this place in Pittsburgh (Adrian's Pizza) that has amazing Pierogi Pizza. In honor of Lizzie's big move to Pittsburgh in a few weeks we made this quiche.

Crust: Gluten Free Pizza Crust
Bonus Layer: Mashed Potatoes, Sauteed Onions, Sundried Tomatoes (re-hydrated)
Filling: three eggs (local, organic- as always), 1/2 cup almond milk, some salt

Pittsburgh Pierogi Pizza Quiche
Cheese: White Cheddar, Provolone grated

Bake in Oven at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. *note: bake crust for a few minutes before adding ingredients on top.


This quiche was so good! The only critique we had is that the crust is kinda hard to cut. This may depend on the kind you get.

shannon the great's philly tomato pie quiche/ week 39 - may 17, 2010




our friend shannon came to visit us this week! we were so excited we decided to make a philadelphia food inspired quiche. none of us have actually had tomato pie. but boy oh boy were we excited to try it out.

In spirit of the theme we chose pretzels, tomato pie, and cheddar cheese (instead of cheese sauce) because of their Philly roots.

Crust: Glutino Gluten Free sesame pretzel rings
Bottom Layer: Sliced Tomato (organic and local slicer tomatoes!)
Middle Layer: 3 Eggs (organic and local!), 1/2 cup almond milk, 1 T dried basil,
1 T dried oregano
Bottom Layer: Another Sliced Tomato Layer
Cheese: Cheddar and a little Pecorino Romano

soooo good!
