Instructions
I love the quiche because it's so adaptable - if you don't have these veg handy they're easily substituted.
A tip stolen from a friend: using smoked gouda in this adds a really nice "meaty" flavour.
1. Sweat chopped garlic and red onion in a little olive oil. Meanwhile steaming the broccoli and spinach for a couple minutes.
2. Combine eggs and milk and add a bit of salt and pepper - include the cayenne
3. Fill pie crust with the onion + garlic mixture, broccoli, spinach and cheese (save a little for the top).
4. Pour egg mixture over everything and top with the left over cheese and cherry tomatos
5. Bake at 425 for about 35 minutes
