Ingredients
1/3 cup plain flour
1 cup milk
3 eggs 3 egg whites
4 scoops of Tasteless Protein by Feel Good Protein
One bunch of asparagus, lightly blanched in boiling water
1/2 cup feta cheese
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
50 grams of bacon, cubed
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
1. Firstly, start by chopping the bacon into small, tiny cubes. Set it aside for now.
2. Next, chop the asparagus into smaller pieces and blanch them in boiling water until their colour starts to change. Drain and set aside.
3. Preheat your oven to a moderately slow temperature of 160°C. Grease a shallow 23cm round flan dish with oil.
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the plain flour and milk until smooth. Then, whisk in the eggs to create a creamy base for the pie.
5. Now, it’s time to add the star ingredients! Stir in the blanched asparagus, feta cheese, grated cheddar cheese, and the cubed bacon. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything together until they are well combined.
6. Pour the mixture into the prepared (oven-safe) dish and make sure the ingredients are distributed evenly.
7. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour (60 minutes) or until the pie (or quiche) is set. While waiting, enjoy the delightful aroma as it turns golden brown and the flavours meld together perfectly.
8. Once the Protein-Packed Impossible Pie is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh chives for an added touch of freshness for flavour and visual appeal. Bon appétit!
