Question of the day

What would you recommend putting in a quarantine quiche?

Alternatively: [assuming you had sufficient eggs,] what ingredients do you currently have in your home that you think would make a good combination for quiche?

My quiche go-to is usually spinach (or silverbeet aka chard), onions, and then whatever I have of tomatoes, mushrooms, and red capsicum. If pushed though any cookable-green should work: cabbage, bok choy, broccoli, etc.

For pizza tonight I put on onion, sausage slices (in lieu of ham or salami...), tomato, silverbeet, cheese, seasoned with fennel seeds and thyme. (The tomato, silverbeet, fennel and thyme are from my garden. I have a jar full of about 2cups of fennel seeds so expect to be using them a lot....)

That sounds amazing, both for quiche and for spinach!

For mine, this time I ended up using up a lot of odds and ends - the heavy cream I splurged on getting from our farm delivery this week, the unusual mushrooms + awesome shallots from the same, a fancy cheese that had been languishing in the far back of our cheese drawer, eggs, and what proved to be an insufficient quantity of spinach. (Definitely better than no spinach, but we could easily have tripled it!)
