Alma's Easy Goat Cheese Souffle

Sometimes a quiche needs a makeover. This crustless quiche-like-casserole-souffle is simple to prepare and exceptionally delicious. The goat cheese keeps it light, just in time for scary bikini season (or shorts and a tank ini top which is what I'll be wearing in the pool:-))

Enjoy!!

Mushroom Goat Cheese Easy Souffle

1 chopped leek
2 TBS butter
1 cup chopped mushrooms
6 eggs
2 cups milk
salt
pepper
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
chopped crust of 4 pieces bread (whole wheat)

In a medium sized saute pan, heat up butter.

Sautee up the leeks until wilted, a few minutes, and add the mushrooms. Stir until mushrooms start to wilt- a few more minutes.

Throw in the bread crusts and stir for a minute or so. Set aside and cool slightly.

In a large bowl, whip together eggs and milk until combined fully. Add the cooled bread and veggies.

Ina 9"X13" casserole dish, pour in the egg and vegetable mixture and stir in the goat cheese.

Place in the center rack of a preheated 350 degree oven and bake, covered with tin foil, for 1/2 hour. Test with a fork in the center and remove from oven when fork comes out clean.
