It's been one of those crazy days with graduation at the university and food to prep, it leaves no time for person chores. Last week was my birthday and I had a party, but here is the funny thing, I cook for my own party and that's because I truly enjoy cooking. There were about 35 people that attended and that was a success.Now, back to why I cooked for my own party, it relaxes me and take my mind of stressful things.
Well, today I had to whip something up fast for supper and I thought what I have not made in a month that I really like? My miund went to quiche so, I headed off the the big store. I was in Walmart and I saw these really fresh looking leeks and they also had onions on sale for .25 cents per pound. Obviously that was not going to pass me by as I love a good sale. So, I bought all the items I need for a quiche and whipped one up fast from an old recipe I had developed a while back. Here goes, I hope you like it as much as I do. I did take our 3 of the egg yolk since I am trying to get my waist line down.
