This is a perfect brunch. If you are having people over or if you are doing a shower this is a perfect dish you can prepare the night before and just cook it in the morning. One of the hardest things with brunch is to keep eggs warm or get up early enough to cook and prep in the morning and that is why I love things I can prepare the night before. Not only that; Quiche makes an excellent left over the day after. You can put almost anything you want in a Quiche, but the below recipe is my favorite. They key to this Quiche is to cook the pie crust with Dijon mustard, that is what I think make the delicious flavor of the whole thing. Here is a link to my pie crust recipe. Let me know what you like to put in your Quiche.

A great dish for potluck dinners. One of the terrific aspects to this dish is you can change it to suit your preferences. To make it more of an entree mix in meats of your choice. Add vegetables such as broccoli and onions to give it more texture.
