For a long time, I did not consider the quiche when I was planning our weeknight meals.
I should have. It's easy. It's delicious. It's pretty cheap. It's really good for leftovers (I've heard people sometimes have leftovers" I have a teen, a tween, and two more growing kids so "leftovers" sound mythical to me. Like "unicorns" and "people who sleep through the night.")
So the first time I tried out a quiche for dinner wasn't long ago, and my son actually hollered, "What is this miracle you are feeding us and where has it been all my life"""" He has a tendency towards the dramatic, my boy.

So now we do frequent quiches (quiche" Are they like moose when they're plural"). And I've been experimenting with quite a few different kinds. This one is especially great, because it feels special -- goat cheese, y'know" That's for Fancy People. But it's simple and easy to make and it makes your teens yell at you in a good way for once.
Of course, you could also bake this up for a tasty breakfast or brunch food as well. The quiche is beautifully versatile like that.
Ingredients:

one pie crust (storebought, or homemade if you've got time and energy. If so, we like this recipe. If not, we don't judge)
