Dinner | Mom Blog | From Dates to Diapers™

Not sure if you remember, but back in April I was one of 15 bloggers invited to the Nestlé Culinary Institute in Solon, OH. We had the opportunity to hear from top experts in parenting and psychology and even got to meet Celebrity Chef, Antonia Lofaso!

I had an amazing time with the folks from Nestlé, as well as with some of my good bloggy friends. I would be thrilled if you checked out the highlights from our day ::

The fine folks at Nestlé / Stouffer’s sent some fun little goodies home with me and I would love to pass some of them on to one of you, so you can capture your own dinner time memories! I have a Flip MinoHD, and a Family Dinner Box of Questions and here’s what you need to do to enter to win them:

This quiche is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner… You could even make it the night before and enjoy a leisurely breakfast! It’s a huge family hit!

6 – 8 eggs, beaten well with ¼ cup of half and half.
3 handfuls of sliced mushrooms, and ½ diced onion, sauteed in 3T butter.
1 pound of washed spinach. Sauteed, with salt and pepper to taste.
1 tomato, diced
½ pound grated cheddar cheese (or combine cheddar, jack, or swiss)

Sometimes we’ll add bacon or ham, but it’s good without it, too!

Line a pie pan with a basic pie crust (you can buy it frozen, to save time!). Layer cheese, spinach, onions, mushrooms.
Pour ½ of the egg mixture on it, and continue layer until full.
Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake in a preheated oven at 475° until firm, about 45 minutes to an hour
