Quiche Me

My other passion: FOOD. This is my recipe for Crustless "Kid" Quiche. It's the one that was featured in the Atlanta-Journal Constitution last September in the article about homemade baby food and healthy eating for young kiddos.



It's ultra-yummy, ultra-easy and a great way to sneak veggies into kiddos.



Enjoy!
