How to Make Packer S Asparagus Tomato Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
  3. Slice 1 cup of asparagus spears lengthwise and arrange them evenly on the bottom of a 9-inch unbaked pie crust.
  4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the asparagus in the pie crust.
  5. Arrange 1 cup halved cherry or grape tomatoes on top of the egg mixture.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven and arrange the remaining 1 cup sliced asparagus spears over the tomatoes.
  8. Return to the oven and bake for another 25-30 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. The center should be just slightly jiggly.
  9. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
