Paleo Quiche

Quiches, originally known as ‘tarts’, were being made in the medieval period in Europe, and the recipes that became popular are said to have come from Germany, in Europe, as early as the 1500s. The term ‘quiche’ comes from the German word ‘kuchen’, meaning ‘cake’, and it was altered by the French to the common word used today. Quiche is a pastry food dish like a lid-less pie, that is usually cooked in an oven, and is commonly eaten as a savory food. Quiche fillings are made primarily of cream or milk and eggs, and meat like bacon, vegetables, cheese, and seafood are common additions. This quiche recipe is simple and it sticks to the staples. It is a “true winner” in our home! Do you have a special quiche recipe to share? What do you love to use for filling? I would love to know!
