In my household we love this quiche. In fact, we LOVE this dish. Just cooking it and preparing the pastry brings back so many happy memories of walking into the kitchen when I was younger and just smelling the quiche caramelise in the oven. It's honestly such a pleasure to make (and eat!) every time. I've adapted my own recipe from Linda McCartney's "Quiche Linda" recipe, which I used to make all the time - it was actually one of the first ever recipes that I properly learnt how to cook! However, my recipe is more colourful and easier to make, and has a blend of two cheeses to really ooze the earthy delicious flavour in every single bite. It really is so so good.

Perfect Party Food

I've made this recipe A LOT over the last ten years, in many different ways, and it's actually one that I love to make for people when they come over. You wouldn't really be able to tell that it's a vegetarian quiche, but more importantly it's packed with goodness, incredibly high in protein and it can be boshed together and assembled in literally 30 minutes. I've cooked it for summer picnics, made miniature versions for kids birthday parties and sliced it up for canapés, but I love to serve it with some homemade sweet potato fries, some roasted vegetables and a light salad. Previous guests have also devoured it with baked beans, hash browns and the like...it is such a versatile recipe. Plus, it's great as leftovers the next day too. In fact, the recipe for the dough allows you to make one big quiche and at least one extra little one - that's lunch for the next day sorted!
