Let's Cook
-
Step 1.

-
Step 2.
In a large skillet, saute the mushrooms, onion and red pepper in butter until mushrooms are tender. Drain and set aside.
-
Step 3.
In a large bowl, combine cheese and flour. Stir in the milk, eggs, savory, salt and cayenne until blended. Stir in mushroom mixture.
-
Step 4.
Pour into crust. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean (cover edges loosely with foil if needed to prevent overbrowning).
-

Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
