1 serving
cooking spray
2 tsp olive
oil
1
medium onion -- red, thinly
sliced
13 3/4 oz
canned artichoke hearts -- quartered
1/2 tsp
dried tarragon
1 cup soy
milk -- regular
2 large
eggs -- lightly beaten
2 large egg
whites -- lightly beaten
3 oz
fat-free mozzarella cheese -- grated
1 tsp lemon
zest
salt &
freshly ground pepper -- to taste
Preheat
oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Boil 4 cups
water.
Heat oil in
a
medium skillet over medium-high
heat. Cook onion until softened,
about 5
minutes. Add artichoke hearts and tarragon. Cook until artichokes are
heated
through, about 2 minutes.
Meanwhile,
whisk together milk, eggs, egg whites, 1/2 cup of cheese, zest, salt
and pepper.
Pour into prepared pie plate. Scatter onion mixture evenly over egg
mixture.
Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of cheese.
To bake
quiche, create a water bath: Set a large sheet pan with sides on a flat
surface.
Place pie plate on sheet pan. Pour hot water around the pie plate so it
goes 1/2
inch up the sides of the pie plate (do not get water on the quiche).
Carefully
lift sheet pan and pie plate together and place in oven. Bake in water
bath until
set in center, about 45 minutes.
To remove
pie plate from water bath, slide 2 large spatulas under pie plate and
remove pie
plate from oven (make sure to wear oven mitts). Leave sheet pan in
oven so
water can cool once quiche is finished baking.
Turn oven
to broil. Broil quiche 3 inches from heat until golden brown, about 2
minutes.
Cool 5 minutes. Cut into 8 slices.
