Servings: persons

4 eggs, if using a 9-inch pie shell or 5 eggs, if using a 10-inch pie shell
2/3 2/3 cup coconut milk, if using a 9-inch pie shell or 3/4 cup milk, if using a 10-inch pie shell
1 (9 inch) chocolate crumb pie shell or (10 inch) pie crusts
4 4 ounces gouda cheese (shredded or sliced 1/16 inch thick) or 6 ounces cheese, if using a 10-inch pie shell
1/4 1/4 lb cooked chicken (optional) or 1/4 lb cooked shrimp, diced (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup bell pepper, chopped (optional)
1/3 cup onion, chopped (optional)
1/3 cup celery, chopped (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
1/8 teaspoon white pepper (optional)
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional)
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried tarragon or 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, finely chopped

1
Line the pie crust (I like graham cracker crust best, gives the quiche a slightly sweet flavor) with the smoked cheese. Other cheeses can be used, but the smoked cheeses, whatever type, gives the quiche a superior flavor over that of plain cheeses.
2
If you like your vegetables a bit less crunchy, lightly saute the onions, bell peppers, and celery.
3
Mix all ingredients except meat together and pour into pie shell.
4
Sprinkle with meat.
5
Cover with tin foil and bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes for a 9-inch pie shell, or 60 to 75 minutes for a 10-inch pie shell, turning quiche one-half turn halfway through cooking, or until egg in center is set.
6
Remove tinfoil and broil 2 to 5 minutes until lightly browned on top (this is just for appearance).
