This is pretty good for an egg-less quiche. We made some changes to accommodate our tastes: We used 1/2 green bell pepper, and 1/2 red, since we think red tastes "sweeter", used cremini mushrooms (or baby portabellas), since we've found button mushrooms don't have much flavor, and we sprinkled colby/jack/cheddar cheese on top after we had tried a piece, since we wanted more flavor. I put the recipe in the hands of my non-cooking hubby, and it was easy for him to make. Thanks for posting this recipe!
