Asparagus Cheddar PieThis week I'm working on Orange for my Exploring Rainbows class and my asparagus cheddar pie turned out to be more orange than expected so I thought I'd share. More orange will follow on my Lost in a Rainbow section after next Tuesday's class. Here's the recipe - very easy. Heat oven to 375 F Partially baked 10" home made pie crust - I baked mine for 5 minutes in a 375 degree oven. Brush the bottom of the baked pie crust with 1 T dijon mustard, optional I pound asparagus,, cooked 4 eggs 3/4 cup light cream salt pepper 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 T fresh dill, optional 2 cups grated cheddar cheese separated into 1 1/2 cups and 1/2 cup for topping. Hot Hungarian paprika Cut the asparagus stalks in half and reserve the top halves. Cut the bottom halves into smaller pieces - about one inch - and place in pie shell. Combine eggs, cream, garlic, spices and 1 1/2 cup cheese and pour over asparagus. Arrange the top pieces of asparagus with the spear heads facing in towards the middle. Top with remaining half cup of cheese. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 375 degrees for about 40 minutes (until the eggs are set and knife inserted in the center comes out clean).
