small bowl and mix well. Transfer to the pie pan and pat into place with lightly floured fingers, building up the sides into a handsome edge. 3. Bake for 30 mins, then brush the crust with a little oil and bake it 10 more minutes. Remove from oven, and turn the temp down to 375. 4. Heat the olive oil or butter in a large skillet. Add onion, garlic, salt, pepper and herbs, and saute over medium heat for about 5 mins. Add cauliflower, stir and cover. Cook until tender, stirring occasionally, about 8-10 minutes. 5. Spread half the cheese onto the baked crust <ok if it's still hot>. Spoon the sauteed veggies on top, then sprinkle on the remaining cheese. Beat the eggs and milk together, and pour this over the top. Dust lightly with paprika. 6.

Bake 35-40 mins, or until set. Serve hot or warm. From the New Moosewood Cookbook Shared by Lisa Greenwood Submitted By SHARON STEVENS On 11-16-94
