- Grilled Asparagus and Leek or Sautéed Spinach and Leek.
- Tips.
- Dry out tomatoes while leeks are sautéing to save time. This will also prevent your quiche from becoming too watery during the baking process as tomatoes release their juices. Do not over-bake the quiche. It should still jiggle in the middle once the edges have set.
