Sundried Tomato Quiche

Our tomato quiche is a veggie twist on our classic quiche. We use sun dried tomatoes for a tart, tangy flavor and cashews for extra protein. Our creamy quiche for breakfast is a delicious non-meat way to get a protein boost that will keep you going all morning. Top with some of our Sambal Hijau or Hot Sambal for a little spice. Add a salad or steamed vegetables, and you’ve got a healthy, fiber-rich lunch or dinner.
