It was cold and crazy windy outside today and this is the best kind of days for me to bake and tests recipes, oven on for a long time and that’s for sure will keep the house warm. Also it was clean the fridge from leftovers kind of day…

I had roasted chicken breast, grilled zucchini and other leftover vegetables that I needed to use, I also had a small pint of egg whites that I had to use for sure.

I had a ready made pie crust in the freezer that I also needed to use and that’s how this delicious quiche came about.
