For anyone who dreads the thought of making gluten free pastry (which is generally horrible) this is a great alternative for the traditional quiche as the flour is included in the batter recipe so it is just as filling.
It freezes well and feeds about 5 people.
Add any leftovers you have lurking around in the fridge- it's a great end of the week use it up meal.
