Preparation

What You Need

3 tbsp (45 ml) butter

1 onion, finely chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

1 lb (450 g) mushrooms, thinly sliced

2 red peppers, halved, seeded and diced

3 tbsp (45 ml) chopped fresh parsley

8 eggs

1 1/2 cups (375 ml) milk

2 cups (500 ml) grated Canadian Cheddar cheese

1 tsp (5 ml) salt

1/4 tsp (1 ml) black pepper

1/2 cup (125 ml) fresh breadcrumbs

3 tbsp (45 ml) grated Canadian Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Melt butter in a large skillet; add onion and garlic. Sauté 5, 10 min until tender and fragrant. Add mushrooms and red peppers; cook until all liquid from the mushrooms and peppers has evaporated, 5 to 10 min. Mixture should be quite dry. Add parsley. Cool.

Beat eggs with milk in a large bowl; add vegetables and remaining ingredients except Parmesan. Pour mixture into a buttered 9 x 13-in (23 x 33 cm) baking dish and smooth top. Sprinkle with Parmesan.

Bake 35 to 40 min at 350 °F (180 °C) or until set. Rest 10 min before serving.

Recipe can be halved and baked in an 8-inch (20 cm) square or round baking dish.

Tips

Note: If fresh red peppers are not available substitute green peppers or 3/4 cup (175 mL) diced pimento.
