dish. Bake 30-35 minutes.
Salsa and Cheese Quiche
6 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup salsa
2 cups Monterey jack and cheddar cheese (I use the Mexican cheese blend)
 Grease a 2-quart soufflé or quiche dish.
Wisk together (I use a hand mixer) the eggs, sour cream, cottage cheese.
Put the salsa in the greased dish, then the cheese, then the egg
mixture.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes (I usually cover the last ten minutes so it
doesn't get too brown)

Nutmeg Syrup
|

2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
3/4 tsp salt
