Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray round pie dish with cooking spray or oil.

  • Pour mixture into pie pan and bake for 40 minutes.
  • While quiche is baking, slice tomato into thick slices. Choose the two largest slices and use cookie cutter to cut slices into hearts. (You may need to go around the cookie cutter with a knife before removing to ensure a clean cut.)
  • Remove quiche from oven and carefully place heart-shaped tomato slices on top of quiche. Return quiche to the oven and bake for 10-15 more minutes or until the quiche has set.
  • Remove from oven and allow quiche to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

When hosting company, I often like to bake my quiche the night before and reheat it the next day. To do this, simply allow your quiche to cool completely, cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat quiche in the oven at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes and serve hot.
