I will admit that I am a bit late to the quiche world and that my sister in-law turned me on to them. They are rather easy and I have no idea why I haven’t done them before. I think for me it’s because I am not a big egg eater. However, everyone else in my home is so this is a recipe that I make a little more often than I would like.
When I make it I typically make it for breakfast or for brunch. It can be eaten for dinner but I don’t know for me it just doesn’t fit that bill. I don’t serve it with anything else since it pretty much has everything that you need in there. It would be great with mimosas though.

Although I do admit that I just have a glass of orange juice with it when we have it. One of the best things about quiches is that you can adjust it easily. If you wanted a some greens in here you could easily add some spinach. If bacon isn’t your thing, then do sausage or maybe ham. Make it your own and enjoy!
