Not a fan of eggplant? Neither was I until a good friend and co-worker shared this recipe with me about 35 years ago. This quiche is a savory summer keeper to say the least. This makes two quiche. Put one in the oven today and one in the freezer for later. This is one of those recipes I don't want to ever lose. Enjoy!
