Spinach & Chicken Quiche
(Bob's Title: Spinach, Cheese & Chicken Pie because "real" men don't eat quiche)

1/2 cup chopped Red Onions*, saute
1/2 tsp. minced garlic, saute
4 tsp. butter
10 oz. Pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
3/4 tsp. Tobasco sauce
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. fresh basil leaves (from the jar is good)
5 whole mushrooms, sliced
1 cup Lowfat Bisquick
1 cup Lowfat Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
4 eggs ( I threw out 2 of the yokes), beat well
1 1/2 cup lowfat milk
4 cooked boneless/skinless chicken breasts*, cut up

Saute onion and garlic in melted butter. Add mushroom slices and cook until tender. Remove from heat and add all the rest of the ingredients. Mix well. Grease a 10" deep pie plate and pour the mixture in carefully. Bake 45 to 50 minutes on 350 degrees. Should be firm in the middle.
Let stand 10 minutes before serving. While waiting add 1/4 cup more shredded cheese over the top if desired. Fix a salad and your meal is ready. Make 6 large pie slices of quiche or 8 smaller slices.

This was a big hit with Bob, even though he doesn't like the official name. He still ate it up.
For those that don't eat meat - I would add more mushrooms or portabellas in place of the chicken. For those that don't like onions, you can leave them out, but you will be missing out on some wonderful flavor!!

:)) Tonight, I made a homemade Fruit Smoothie for my dinner. It is really good, but Emmalee still makes the best!!

:{{ One mistake I have made in cooking this week - - I added fresh broccoli to a whole pan of King Ranch Chicken. The broccoli flavor took over. No matter how much sour cream and Picante we added, it still tasted like a broccoli casserole. So, don't add broccoli to your King Ranch - serve it on the side with cheese and it will be a great meal!!
