Clean the refrigerator Quiche

Yes, periodically the refrigerator needs to be cleaned out.  I started with a package of ground pork from the freezer with about a tablespoon of Italian seasoning.  I added about a cup of shredded kohlrabi. two cups of shredded zucchini and two small cans of mushrooms.  
I had about 1 1/3 squeeze bottles of  sour cream and some horseradish sauce for a little extra flavor. I blended that together and spread it over the top of the partially cooked mixture.
I whipped 8 eggs together with about half a cup of heavy whipping cream.  Have you noticed the ingredients?  This would qualify for a paleo meal.  
I carefully mix all the layers together before putting the mixture into the oven for an hour at 350 degrees.  Then I went outside to work in the garden with my alarm set.  By the time that I made it back inside it was closer to an hour and 15 minutes.
I took the cover off then turned off the oven an put the quiche back in.  The stored heat allowed the top to brown just a touch.
The nice thing about using the Copperchef Pan is that even though the edge gets crispy brown, it still serves well.  The flavors blended together well giving our supper quiche many layers of flavor.

Pumpkin Spice Fat Bombs a Paleo treat

Are you ready for a special treat?  You see pumpkin spice everywhere.  So here is one that you can make at home.
8 oz cream cheese
8 ounces pureed pumpkin-spiced
25 drops pumpkin spice stevia
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Start with an 8 ounce cake of cream cheese.  The original is better for you than the low fat.  Then I added 8 ounces of pureed pumpkin which I froze in years past.  I spiced it when I pureed it.  Probably about a teaspoon of pumpkin spice which is added to a pumpkin pie.
I blended the two together then added about a cup of heavy whipping cream.  I slowly and carefully mix the heavy whipping cream into the cream cheese and pureed pumpkin.  At this point I also add the stevia so that it gets blended well into the mixture.
The heavy whipping cream helps to set the mixture.  Taste it to decide if you want to add more flavored stevia or heavy whipping cream added.  This mixture is designed to be frozen.  
I use my tablespoon scoop to create consistent size balls.  I have put a piece of wax paper over a cookie sheet.  After most of the mixture is placed onto the cookie sheet, I move it to the freezer.  I said "most" because I leave a serving or two in the bowl to eat right away!  YUM!!!
