Apple Onion Quiche

• 1 - 9 inch pre-baked pie crust. (Use your own one crust recipe or a store-bought favorite.)
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 2 cups peeled thinly sliced apples
• 1 medium sized white or yellow onion coarsely chopped
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (sharp makes it tangy, mild makes it sweeter)
• 5 large eggs
• 1 cup milk (use whole or lowfat or non-fat)
• 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg
• pinch salt and pepper
• 1 tbsp. coarse, raw sugar

1. Bake pie crust according to instructions on package or follow your recipe. Let cool.
2. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
3. Saute the onions on the stovetop in olive oil until slightly soft and translucent. Set aside and cool slightly. (Microwaving is an option here.)
4. Add onions, apples, and cheese to cooled crust. Loosely mix or leave in pretty layers.
5. Whisk eggs, milk, nutmeg, salt, pepper together in a large bowl until well mixed.
6. Carefully pour mixture into pie crust over onions, apples, and cheese until crust is full. Pour slowly and do not over-fill crust.
7. Place quiche on cookie sheet and into pre-heated oven. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Sprinkle coarse, raw sugar on top of quiche and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until knife point comes out clean.
8. Let quiche rest for 10 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with a garnish of mint leaves or grapes.
