Kale , Onion and

This recipe is for a vegetarian quiche, but you can easily adapt it to a vegan version, or use meat to make it non-veggie. My whole family loved this, and they don't normally like quiche very much. I served it with a wild & long grain rice cooked with dried cranberries, and some carrots and peas.

I'm not a big fan of quiche, but I loved this one! The flavors of the kale, onion, and bacon were perfectly balanced, and the crust was flaky and golden brown.

This quiche was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still came out perfect.

This quiche was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less bacon.

This quiche was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some additional seasonings.
