2. Makes 1 large Quiche in a 9 X 12 baking dish which has been coated with butter or coconut oil

3. Place the veggie ingredients in a large sauté pan and cook for about 7 minutes. Take off of the heat and set aside to cool.

4. In a bowl, combine the egg mixture.

5. Take the sautéed veggies and put them in the baking dish. Add the egg mixture, then top with cheese. Bake on a cookie sheet (for drips) for about 40-50 minutes. Once center is firm, it’s done!

This is not only great for breakfast (all week!), but makes an excellent vegetarian dinner. Serve with some greens and a dollop of the walnut pesto!
