My family didn't care too awfully much for it, but I didn't mind, because this was beautiful and smelled amazing!! I don't eat the main ingredients in this due to stomach problems, but if I had, I KNOW it would have been 100% perfect! So, bravoooooo on an amazing and easy (wow-don't get that combo often!) meal! Served with mini blueberry waffles from my new waffle iron.

And K-U-W, beautiful picture!!!

GREAT QUICHE! I had it for breakfast this morning and it reheated quickly in the microwave for dinner tonight! I used 1/4 tsp red pepper because I was totally out of black pepper ~ I had only 1/4 cup mozzarella, so I added 4-ounces of minced Swiss and also added 1 T dried chives.
