bacon, green onions, white cheddar
leftover chopped roasted vegetables with provolone

• I prepare the filling for my quiche in advance, then pour it into a pie crust with the eggs and cream when I want to cook it. This can also be cooked entirely ahead of time and served at room temperature or reheated in the oven for 15-20 minutes until warmed through.
