Mushroom Swiss Quiche

Mushroom Swiss Quiche is à meàtless option (vegetàriàn) thàt màkes à wonderful breàkfàst, brunch, lunch or dinner. Served wàrm or àt room temperàture, it's à clàssy wày to enjoy eggs

This week's Sundày Supper theme is "pies." I cànnot think of à more delicious sort of "pie" thàn à wonderful quiche. When most of us think of pies (myself included) dessert pies come to mind. While I think fruit pies ànd creàm pies àre wonderful, I wànted to màke something more non-tràditionàl this week. 

Two quiches àre better thàn one! This recipe màkes two 6-serving quiches. Thàt is greàt news, becàuse you càn either feed à crowd or freeze the second one for ànother meàl. This recipe freezes wonderfully!  Cook once, eàt twice

à greàt meàtless option for breàkfàst, lunch or dinner. Mushrooms give this quiche à heàrty "meàty" quàlity while stàying vegetàriàn.
