Recipe
Garden Quiche
Bright May mornings always foster a cozy need for breakfast-in-bed. Although, that may just be because Mother’s Day is around the corner. This is a relatively painless dish that is sure to make ya momma proud and works perfectly for those soft cotton mornings when you just want to relax in the moment. The recipe is flexible and will take to many flavors and textures, calling for 1.5 cups of chopped veggies. Mushrooms, summer squash, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, leeks, and onions are a great start, and additions such as ham or bacon are always a good choice and available at any CCFM market. Pop some bubbly to take this garden quiche to boozy brunch levels.
