Hello Kitten - I have to tell you that these Mini-Quiches flew off the buffet table! We had a brunch for the staff and all the family members & of course all the residents and it was lovely but I must tell you - it got to a point where I had to come back up to my room and print off 30 more copies of the recipe. Instead of swiss only I added gruyere and added a little red pepper flakes to half of the quiches and none to the others. We were lucky that we have commercial size ovens and large mini muffin tins. Really very delicious and if I could I'd have one right now. Thanks for posting, you know I love your recipes. Hugz, Manami a/k/a discharf ;)
