My husband and I value our time with our friends and try to spend 2 nights a months with them. However, after a night of dancing, singing and "merriment" I am too wiped out the next morning to make breakfast. I solved that problem by making this quiche the day ahead, then cooling and storing in the fridge. It is awesome reheated the next morning. Add some fruit and yogurt and you have a great meal.
