Step 5
Tip: If you are for a more spiced picnic food add hot chile, basil, oregano, tomatoes, onion, peppercorns, and bell pepper. Also you may experiment with adding ham or sausage and have it all <a href="/R34ZSY3M">topped </a>with mozzarella – just as a full Italian pizza. Adding some <a href="/3JV6BKBV">sour </a><a href="/R3P5MM3Z">cream </a>and milk into the <a href="/GV3SK283">whisked </a>eggs will splendidly plump the quiche. Bon Appetite!
