Fresh Corn Quiche
If you're following a Weight Watchers diet, this recipe is perfect for you. It is low-calorie, and has lots of fiber and is a healthy alternative to traditional quiche. Acorn quiche is a great alternative to traditional potato. If you are on a budget, you'll find it easier to make this recipe than with traditional pie crusts. You can also replace the cheese with other types, and the crust is still perfectly good.
Ingredients
- 4 Eggs
- 2 cups Half & Half or 1 cup Heavy Cream/1 cup Milk

- Prepare pie dough and line pie pan (or two baking pans) with pie dough. Set aside.
- In a bowl whisk together eggs, half & half, seasonings, and corn. Pour mixture over the pie crust.
- Top with as much shredded cheese as you prefer. For a cheesier quiche add shredded cheese to the liquid mixture.

- Let cool at least 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

This was a great late breakfast or early lunch. Okay I will go ahead and say it… brunch!
I guess you could call us fancy since we am now the connoisseur of quiche on Sunday.
