Turn thin (operative word) strips of carrots, eggplant and zucchini into this beauty with an herbed custard (quiche) base in a tart shell. Add onions, chopped pepper and herbs to the egg mixture; arrange the strips in a pastry shell and pour liquid over all. Bake at 325 till custard sets and veggies are tender.
Gorgeous and colorful! The original art is at this foreign blog*, and I can’t translate their recipe. Other vegetable tarts are shown on the site, too.
A look once it’s cut:

Do you think you start with raw vegetables or would you blanche them first?

Do you think we could ever replicate this, Jan??
Perhaps a Garden Club experience?? What do you think? It is GORGEOUS!!!

@ Sherra, blanching would add too much water. I usually saute my veggies first to extract the water and intensify flavors, however, that would be a pain in the butt with the full length veggies in this recipe. It looks so beautiful! I will have to experiment as it really looks so pretty! Jan?
