Vegetarian Quiche Recipe

Do you have a breakfast or brunch coming up and need a tasty and impressive component? This vegetarian quiche recipe might be just what you are looking for. This is a recipe from my mother-in-law, and we made it for a brunch baby shower I co-hosted for my sister-in-law. The quiche was a hit. If you are looking for a non-vegetarian option as well, you should definitely try my swiss and bacon quiche.

Of course to make a great quiche, you need to start with a great pie crust. You can always buy frozen at the store, and that works. However, we tried a frozen crust next to a homemade crust, and I thought there was no comparison. I’d go fresh. That said, I know we are all busy, and I completely understand and won’t tell a soul if you buy a frozen one. If making a pie crust intimidates you, I also understand. I was intimidated for years, but I was able to post about how to make a perfect pie crust with confidence after a tutorial from my mother-in-law.
