Overcomplicated Quiche

I tried to make this quiche, but I broke the rule of keeping food simple. I messed it up pretty bad!

Heres what happened

1) I went to make my own crust and realized I only had whole wheat flour. I wanted to do it half and half, because just whole wheat is pretty gross and to make it worse it was expired. I have never cooked much with whole wheat flour, because this healthy food cooking has only been around for about half a year. Anyone know what happens when flour expires?

I also did not have a rolling pin, so I made use of something every college kid has: alcohol!

2) I decided to roast some veggies in the oven for my quiche. I accidentally roasted them at 425 instead of 400 though and some of them burned and I accidentally put them in the quiche, not paying attention. Gross, taking a bite of egg and burnt shit is no bueno.

Would've been delicious if I had done this right!

I put very little cheese in it to make it healthy, just 1/4 C mozzarella and 1/4 C cheddar. Heres the quiche when I was assembling it:

Check this tomato I put in it! I bought it at the farmers market: What a beauty:

And I bought these eggs:

At least it looked pretty

3) I overcooked it, not by much, but it wasnt as moist as it could have been! In the past I have tried to make 2 quiches, both of which were undercooked =(

4) I also added dried italian herbs and Mrs Dash. Way too much! Next time I will only add a little salt, pepper and nutmeg. I would reccomend only using fresh herbs to anyone thinking of making a quiche

Learn from my mistakes. Quiches can be both healthy and delicious (although never low cal). Packed with protein and veggies, it makes a great vegetarian meal
