The dust has settled and we have oodles of leftovers from Easter brunch. We have baked beans, butter croissants, cupcakes and ham. This is a really simple quiche my dear mother has been making for as long and I can remember. Hers are way cuter than mine, she makes darling little individual quiches. She is the best hostess of all time.

That is one nice looking quiche! The ham ans cheese combo would add a ton of flavour and I always like broccoli.
Many thanks for your recipe. It`s seems to be easy. :-)
This is my favorite quiche recipe (even better than Julia’s!). It’s not too eggy, not too wet and very versatile. I’ve made it as is with broccoli and cheddar, added mushrooms, used Italian turkey sausage and smoked mozzarella and, tomorrow’s brunch version (it’s in the oven right now) with sautéed leeks, Gruyere and ham. Thank you so much for sharing this, Sammy! It is just delicious.
