BACON AND VEGGIE QUICHE



BACON AND VEGGIE QUICHE
Mother's Day is next weekend and most people will fall into one of two categories if their mother is still living and they are able to celebrate with her.  They will either take her out to eat or find themselves scrambling for something unique and delicious to make for her as a way of celebrating the day.  Olivia adapted this recipe from one she found at www.pilllsbury.com.  You might just find this is the special dish that will  make your mom's eyes light up.  It would make for a nice breakfast in bed or perhaps a brunch addition. 

If you have never made quiche at home, wait no longer and don't be afraid to make one because you think it is too exotic for your weekday menu.  Quiche can be a great breakfast item or even dinner if paired with a salad or some fruit.  One of the best things about quiche is that you can be creative.  Mix and match ingredients.  Experiment with pairings you like. You might just find it becomes a "go to" favorite in your household.
