Texas Quiche

Recipe #44640 | 1 hour | 15 min prep | 1 Quiche (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Miss Annie

This recipe is from The Columns on Alamo B&B in San Antonio. It makes a lovely brunch, lunch or dinner entree. I serve it with a crispy green salad, or sometimes a fruit salad.

    This quiche recipe is a nice change. The green chilis give it an interesting flavor, and it is really quick to whip up. It browns very nicely, which I appreciate as I find that not all quiches do. Thank you!
