Savory Mini Quiches

I love quiches for a brunch and these mini quiches are a great way to make an easy finger food for a baby or wedding shower, brunch or party. You can adapt them with your favorite veggies or change out the type of cheese to your choice. I added red pepper to the recipe for the gender neutral baby shower we hosted.

Entertaining and parties are a great time to pull out those appetizer recipes you feel like you never get to use, or to try some new ones. When you are the hosts, finding recipes like this one that are easy and can be made ahead and warmed up at party time, are great stapes for your recipe box.

I cooked these mini quiches for the menu of our daughter’s Gender Neutral Baby Shower. They were easy to make and adapt and I also made them ahead of time and just warmed them when it was time for the event. Check out the details of the Gender Neutral Baby Shower for lots of DIYs and more recipes.
