Quiche is a great dinner choice and here is why. Paired with a salad, it makes a well-rounded, quick and simple midweek meal.

Using a basic recipe, you can easily switch up the ingredients depending on what you have on hand to liven up the dinner doldrums. Most commonly thought of as a brunch item, I find that a quiche is a welcome change once every few weeks and can be a light, fast dinner when you are pressed for time. What is especially nice about the quiche recipe I am sharing is that it calls for a prepared frozen pie shell, which usually comes in a pack of two. So, it is a no-brainer to double the recipe and make a second quiche that can be frozen for another time or used as lunch throughout the week.

Here is the recipe I use, but feel free to switch up the protein, cheese or veggies and customize it to your liking (or to use up whatever might be going bad in your refrigerator)!
