Barb's Smoked Salmon Mini Quiches

Ninna's Note:

The original recipe came from Australian Womens Weekly Finger Food Cookbook. Our friend Barb makes these frequently for parties - she makes them ahead and freezes them so there is no last minute rush. They are really delicious and they go very quickly so make heaps.
