Garden Vegetable Quiche
This quiche offers great taste, visual appeal, and plenty of fresh, garden veggies
Quiches don’t get enough attention, in my humble opinion. They do an excellent job merging carbs and
vegetables into one very satisfying and tasty dish, and give home cooks the opportunity to really have fun
with substitutions and additions to the recipe.
Most quiche recipes can be played around with by adding different veggies (think: what’s in my crisper?),
a variety of hard or soft cheeses, and different spice combinations and condiments to achieve a whole gamut of savory flavors.
Have at it – the results will be delicious!

Pour into pie crust right up to the edge of the crust but don’t overfill. If you’re concerned about
spills in the oven as the quiche rises, place a sheet of aluminum foil under the pie pan. (Extra
batter can be baked in sturdy muffin liners – crustless mini quiches for the cook to enjoy!)
