Quiche with zucchini (courgettes), leeks and cheddar

My beautiful friend, Laura, always makes the most amazing quiches.  Last time she came to visit, I insisted we make a quiche together.

This recipe with zucchini is one she creates often and it is loaded lots of vegetables and cheese, and just the perfect amount of eggs- and no cream!  She also does not pre-bake the pie crust and somehow it comes out perfect.

As far as quiche recipes making it requires a bit of chopping but otherwise is really easy.  And best of all it tastes absolutely delicious.

For a Saturday lunch along with a fresh green salad, you have the perfect meal.
