This Saturday we are planning to go to Mussentuchit. What a great name, huh! It is a little gem of a sand dune in the middle of nowhere, Utah. We went last Easter weekend so if we go this week it will be a tradition. I'm planning on making my 'famous by noon tomorrow' Asparagus Quiche for the picnic. Here's the recipe~

Whole wheat crust:

boil 1/3 cup water with 2 T. oil
then pour it into a bowl and toss in 1 cup
whole wheat flour and a bit of salt

Mix and roll out thin, put it in a pie dish.

Filling:
Saute some thinly sliced leeks
and a bunch of asparagus (trimmed & chopped)
until crisp-tender, let cool
In a bowl whip 4 eggs with 1/4 cup cream or 1/2 & 1/2
Mix in some grated cheese, any kind you like
Salt and pepper to taste...then add asparagus & leeks
Pour into pie shell
Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes

YUMMY and totally healthy!

Happy spring everybody~
