Just in time for your Mother’s Day brunch, here’s a new quiche recipe that’s pretty darn stellar, if we do say so ourselves! We whipped this up on my recent trip out to Kate’s farm, so with two 1-year-olds in tow, you can be sure this recipe is super simple and little people approved!
And the best part is…it tastes just as great right out of the oven as it does eaten cold for leftovers the next day.
You’re welcome :).

Hi, Traci,
Do you have any healthy recipes for rhubarb? Seems like everything that uses rhubarb is a dessert. I love rhubarb, it says “spring” to me, and I’d like to find healthier ways to eat it.

Hi Lolly-
To be very honest with you, I haven’t cooked with rhubarb a whole lot! We do have one recipe for it from the new cookbook, however it is in fact a dessert recipe. I’m happy to share it with you, so if you have a chance to make it let me know what you think :).
Honey Rhubarb Fool
Serves — 8
1 lb rhubarb stalks, trimmed and chopped
½ cup honey (or more to taste)
1 orange, juiced
2 t orange peel, grated
1½ cups heavy cream
3 T cane sugar
1 t vanilla
1. Chill a large, deep bowl and electric beaters.
2. Place rhubarb, honey, orange juice and peel in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is very tender, about 10 minutes.
3. Let cool, then cover and chill.
4. Place the cream in the chilled bowl and using the chilled beaters, beat on medium speed for 1–2 minutes. Increase to high speed and beat until cream begins to thicken.
5. Continue to beat on high while gradually adding the sugar. Add vanilla and beat until the cream stands up in soft peaks when the beaters are lifted above the bowl.
6. Gently fold whipped cream into the chilled rhubarb mixture. Do not mix thoroughly so as to to leave large streaks of cream intact. Serve immediately.
