Hurry...there are only 5 cookbooks and I bet they will go fast!!
Sharon Starlings Autumn Quiche
ReplyDeleteHere is my tried and true quiche recipe. It is so easy to make ahead. I make this all the time, I cook the meat, and after it cools I just mix all the ingredients together and put it in the fridge. Then in the morning I pour it into the pi crusts and bake. Or you can bake the nihght before and rewarm that morning-They reheat well too.

Toast nuts in oven at 325 until nicely brown. Make meringue with sugar, eggs and salt. Fold in nuts. Melt butter in cookie sheet with sides.
