Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

16 oz white mushrooms, cleaned and cut into quarters
2 medium leeks, washed thoroughly and chopped
2 Tbsp butter
8 eggs
1 1/2 c heavy cream
2 c swiss cheese, grated
salt and pepper
8 slice prosciutto (thin slices-rough chop) or good ham
1 9" pie crust or crust for a deep dish pie

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Place quartered mushrooms on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
3. Finely chop the cleaned leeks. Saute them over medium heat in butter for 8-10 minutes (or until they begin to brown slightly and caramelize).
4. In a bowl, whisk the eggs and cream together, stir in the cooled mushrooms, leeks, cheese, prosciutto, salt and pepper
5. Pour into a pie shell, cover loosely with foil and bake for 45 minutes at 400. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes.
6. Remove from the oven and allow it to sit 10 minutes before cutting. (*a variation she provides but I didn't do includes stirring in 2 tablespoons of Pesto into the quiche mixture before baking.)
