What's Cooking

The first time I thought about making a Quiche I was a little intimidated,but I love trying new things,so I searched for a simple,but easy recipe that looked good enough to serve company. I found one changed it up a bit to suit our taste and it's the one I make all the time now. 

I hope you'll try it.
