Quiches are very easy to make. They are filling and nutritious. The best part is that you can hide whatever vegetables you have around the fridge and put them to good use!
Traditionally quiche lorraine is made with bacon, but we loaded it with veggies instead and we know you’re going to love it.
Quiche can also be served with or without a crust. In summertime indulge in a ready crust, but if you are calorie conscious skip the crust. This quiche is delicious served warm or cold.
