Western Omelette Quiche Recipe

This colorful Western Omelette quiche happens when savory pies and roasted Western omelettes collide. Eggs, cheese, paprika, green onions, and ham are all baked together with delicious creamy pudding in a deep dish pie shell. Not only is this quiche easy but it also heats beautifully. It can only spell deliciousness in my recipe book.

Quiche reminds me of a small bistro that I used to visit with my girlfriend for lunch. We gather at least one Saturday morning every month to catch up and giggle. Especially giggling. We often meet in remote small bistros where there is always something delicious offered as Chef's specials on that day. Quiche in every imaginable taste is regular rotation on the menu and always a hot favorite. Personally, I think quiche is suitable for eating every day. Especially when served with a light fruit compote or mixed salad salad to complement the meal.
