A perfect dish for a spring brunch. Serve with fresh fruit.

Ingredients:

  • 2 (4.5 oz.) Cans - StarKist Selects® Solid White Albacore Tuna in Water, drained
  • 1 refrigerated or frozen pie crust for a 9-inch pie
  • 12 cup sliced scallions, white and green parts
  • 4 oz. sliced white mushrooms
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 6 eggs
  • ⅔ cup heavy cream
  • 34 cup whole milk
  • 6 oz. Swiss cheese, shredded
  • 14 tsp. nutmeg

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Place pie crust in 9-inch pie plate. Line with foil and pie weights or dried soup beans. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and weights and bake an additional 5 minutes. Cool crust, in pie plate, on wire rack.
  • Cook mushrooms and scallions in olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until softened.
  • Mix eggs, cream and milk together in a separate bowl.
  • Break apart tuna and spread over the bottom of crust, covering well. Top tuna with mushrooms, scallions and cheese.
  • Pour egg and cream mixture over tuna and mushroom mixture, being careful to not overfill the crust. (You may have a little of the liquid left over.) Make sure cheese is spread evenly throughout the pie. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
  • Bake at 425°F for approximately 40 minutes, until the center no longer wiggles.
  • Serve warm or chilled.
