LEEK, ONION, BRUSSELS SPROUTS QUICHE/PIE

Steps:

• Combine the first 8 ingredients in a pan and saute gently until the onions and leeks begin to soften.
• Take off the heat and let cool.
• Cut your cream cheese into small blocks and stir well into the leek mixture.
• Add the grated cheese, cream (if using), eggs, salt and pepper and mix well.
• Scoop into an unbaked pie shell and cook for 40 minutes at 180 C (350 F).
• I got one extra (smaller pie) simply by adding another leek, onion more sprouts to my main mixture. I can't get pie crusts ready made here so used 4Susan's Basic pastry recipe #148258 which makes one larger pie and one smaller one (as shown in my additional photographs).
