Pumpkin Pie

Let me say this:
I love pumpkin.

I love pumpkin salads, and i love roasted pumpkins in olive oil and rosemary. I love pumpkins in pasta and risotto. i love gnocchi made out of pumpkins, i love pumpkins.

So, of course, i had to bake a pumpkin pie. because what pumpkin lover does not love some pumpkin pie?

After eating this, i must say that my love for pumpkin has, if possible, grown even stronger. it even tastes slighly of sweet potato pie. Although it is slightly less starchy.

So have a go at it and try your best not to finish the whole pie in one sitting. It's rude not to share. wink. wink.



Here is the pie crust recipe.

Quiche



Who doesn't like a eggy, warm, creamy quiche?
You can adapt the above recipe to make smaller-sized quiches. Just reduce the baking time. I make about 12 mini pies that baked for about 30 minutes.

I strongly recommend the feta cheese, onions and spinach combination. Great saltiness of the feta with the sweet onions and chewy spinach made me MELT.

If you come up with any other great quiche-combinations, let me know! i am always ready to try out another great mix-n-match quiche.
