- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup sliced mushrooms, and 1 tablespoon garlic tarragon.
- Gently fold in the blanched asparagus and season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the egg mixture into a 9-inch deep-dish pie crust.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and top with 1/2 cup julienned red bell pepper.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 30-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden brown.
