Veggie Herb Quiche

This is delicious the next day for breakfast served hot or cold. Also with this you can pretty much use any vegetables you have lying around in your fridge, not to mention any kind of cheese or herbs. Quiche is a perfect way to utilize odds and ends leftovers.

This feeds about 6 people each if you're serving it with other things or as a snack. As a main dish it may feed more like 4 each, just depends on how thick you slice it.
