Broccoli Cheddar Bacon Quiche

 

 

Lent 2017

Breakfast for dinner! Great additions to this meal would be smoothies, fruit, yogurt, and granola. You can make the quiches together as a Community Group and let them bake during discussion time to enjoy after, or have some volunteers bring prebaked quiches to warm up at the start of Community Group.
