SPRINGTIME ASPARAGUS QUICHE
What better way to bring in spring than with an asparagus quiche loaded with tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, garlic and cheese! This quiche would be great for breakfast, brunch or lunch, served with slices of fresh melon such as canaloupe or honey dew melow. Hope you enjoy as much as I did!
