Tanja's Quiche Lorraine

The recipe today comes from Germany and is sent by Tanja Michael. Tanja was on a tour bus sitting on the opposite side of the bus from where I sat during a recent trip to Las Vegas. We struck up conversation and when I learned that she was from Germany, my German heritage stirred. We shared a little about ourselves and before we departed Tanja offered to share her Quiche Lorraine recipe.

I will post the measurements from grams to cups and etc. A BIG thank you Tanja for sharing her recipe!
