Post subject: | Pi(e) Day |
(Pi as in 3.14) We have an overabundance of eggs (I checked in with my egg guy at work the same day Kathy went to market) so we decided to have a quiche one night this week. Turns out that Wednesday is Pi Day so our timing is getting better as we get older. We have some leftover grilled asparagus, a little less than a cup of diced tomatoes from a can, some bacon and sharp cheddar. A little nutmeg will go in there as well. What are some of your favorite quiche add-ins? |

Smoked turkey and pine nuts; the classics of spinach, bacon, sautéed onions and gruyere; mushrooms; butternut squash. |

I made two crack pies for my daughter's math class. I dusted a Pi sign on the top of both with powdered sugar. They are cool. No pie for me today...My husband and I are going to a 7-course wine dinner tonight and I can't wait! |

Boy, this sneaked up on me this year. I've been slammed at work (it's Spring Break and the we're having great traffic...thank you Ullr for finally bringing us snow). I have no idea what kind of pie to make. Need inspiration... Becca, where are you guys going? Amy |

Here is the menu: http://bayouchef.squarespace.com/storag ... dinner.pdf This is the restaurant: http://www.cheferic.biz/ I have loved everything I have tried from this chef, and he is super nice. I just hope we get through the wine reception without embarrassing ourselves. We are not big wine drinkers. This will also be my first time to try lamb. I hope I like it. |

I made a pot pie Monday and will make a mini coconut cream pie tonight with the leftover dough scraps. I wanted to do more but just can't muster up the energy. As far as add-ins for quiche, I like bacon. ![]() |

(The restaurant is located on the first floor of a boutique hotel, so we're contractually obligated to supply a buffet breakfast to their guests...one of the standard items is quiche.) Quiche Lorraine is my absolute favorite (there's a reason Darcie and I like each other so much), but I'd say my second favorite is our wild mushroom, made with whatever we have seasonally. Amy |
