Asparagus Quiche
 
1 lb. fresh asparagus
1 tsp. salt
1 unbaked 10-inch pastry shell
1 egg white, lightly beaten
2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup sweet bell pepper, diced
4 eggs
1-1/2 cups light cream
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. salt
Pinch of pepper
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cut asparagus spears into 1/2-inch pieces, using only the tender parts of the stalks.
Bring 1 quart of water to a boil in a large saucepan; add salt and all the asparagus. Return to boil. Reduce heat, cover and allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse asparagus.
Brush bottom of pastry shell with egg whites. In a bowl combine the asparagus, Swiss cheese, and pepper; mix gently. Place in the pastry shell. In another bowl, beat eggs, cream, nutmeg, salt and pepper until smooth. Pour into the shell. Bake, uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm
