Cheeseburger quiche

Cheeseburger quiche is a delightful fusion of the classic cheeseburger and the elegant quiche. It offers a delicious way to enjoy the savory flavors of a cheeseburger in a comforting quiche form. This dish can be served as a hearty breakfast, a satisfying lunch, or even a dinner option. It's a versatile and crowd-pleasing recipe that's sure to be a hit at any meal.

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef (80/20%)
450g
1/3 cup onion
55g
1/2 cup mushrooms
36g
2 eggs
110g
1/2 cup mayonnaise salad dressing
120g
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
60g
8 oz cheddar cheese
230g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cook the ground beef:
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until it's fully browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat and transfer the beef to a large mixing bowl.
3. Sauté the vegetables:
In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are browned and tender. Add these to the bowl with the beef.
4. Mix the filling ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, mayonnaise salad dressing, and heavy whipping cream until fully combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Combine the ingredients:
Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the beef and vegetable mixture. Pour the egg mixture over the top and gently stir until everything is well-combined.
6. Prepare the pie crust (if using):
If you're using a pie crust, place it in a 9-inch pie dish and smooth out any wrinkles. If you prefer a crustless quiche, simply grease the pie dish with a little butter or oil.
7. Assemble the quiche:
Pour the beef and cheese mixture into the pie dish, spreading it out evenly.
8. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the quiche is set. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
9. Cool and serve:
Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, and enjoy!

Tips:

- For a more flavorful quiche, consider adding some garlic or Worcestershire sauce to the ground beef while cooking.

- Use a high-quality mayonnaise and cheddar cheese to enhance the overall taste of the quiche.

- Precook the mushrooms and onions to reduce their moisture content and enhance their flavors.

- Ensure the eggs, mayonnaise, and heavy whipping cream are well combined for a smooth custard.

- Let the baked quiche rest for about 10-15 minutes before slicing to allow it to set properly.

- Serve with a fresh side salad or steamed vegetables to complement the rich, cheesy quiche.

Once your quiche is baked to perfection, you'll be rewarded with a savory, cheesy, and satisfying meal that combines the best elements of a cheeseburger with the creamy, custardy goodness of a quiche. Enjoy it warm, and don't forget, this dish can easily become a family favorite for any time of the day. Happy cooking!
