Lazy Sunday Morning Quiche

Give this veggie quiche recipe a try.

"Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." ~Lewis Carroll

There is nothing like a lazy Sunday. Unfortunately because of our hectic lives we don't get to enjoy them as often as we'd like. Between sports, events, errands, etc., it seems as though there is never a day of rest during the week anymore. At this point I'll take what I can get...so how about a lazy Sunday morning? Just a few hours to sleep in, read the paper, take the dog for a leisurely stroll...then eat a nice breakfast with my cup of Joe.

This quiche is perfect for that morning, because you can premake it a day or two ahead of time and just throw it in the oven when you're ready. The recipe makes two so you can even freeze one for later. Feel free to add meat to this if you are so inclined-cooked bacon, sausage or ham would be great in it.
