New life to an old recipe

One of the wonders of cooking is being creative. Take an old recipe and breath new life into it. Well that is what I did this past weekend. I love Quiche and it is so adaptable. You can make them in any size and the ingredients are almost limitless. We took three inch tarts filling them with assorted meats, fresh vegetables, herbs, cheese, egg and cream. Making the most delicious one person Quiches.
One of my favorite things to do with my basic Quiche recipe is to use refrigerator leftovers. I go through the various bowls and containers matching them up to create fantastic one dish meals. A little cold chicken from KFC, a few spoonfuls of creamed corn, a couple unused carrots from a salad and before you know it I had a Chicken Pot Pie Quiche. A show stopper I must say. So be bold, challenge the norm and most of all have fun.
