Recipe 15: Herbed Quiche with Blue Cheese

"It's like cheese pie," said a co-worker. "You're not getting this back. How'd you get it so creamy?" asked Andrea at midnight...

Add lots of cream cheese, 6 oz. if you want to be specific...2 oz maytag blue cheese, a few eggs (only 3), some butter, a whole cup of heavy cream...there goes the dreams of a semi-healthy diet type food...Emeril Lagasse has no concept of the word diet, I swear...nor again, a food budget, but we forgive him, because he's Emeril. Add in a cup of whole milk...when I make this next, it will be made healthier, but not too much so... a little salt, a little pepper and a few herbs 3 T of parsley, thyme, terragon, chives or oregano...or anything similar that smells good with this mixtures that you happen to have on hand.

An hour at 350degrees F. and you have a slice of cheese heaven.

This serves 6 to 8, but an eighth of a pie is 405(conservative estimate) calories. This does include the pie crust however.

I think the quotes speak for themselves, and Yes, I will definitely make this recipe again.
