Real Men Don’t Eat Quiche

And neither do I!

Or so I thought.

I don’t know why in my head I gave quiche such a bad rap. I have only ever had them at bridal or baby showers and was never impressed. They were room temperature, gushy, and bland. So after my first few experiences with quiche I just gave up on them.

To my surprise this was actually quite delicious! The tangy Swiss cheese paired perfectly with the sweet ham. The egg custard was creamy and pulled this whole lunch (or breakfast) (or dinner) together! I guess I have to pull quiche off my “foods I will never eat again” list!

Notes: The original recipe used a puff pastry and mushrooms in place of the pie crust and spinach.
