Smoked Salmon Quiche
Smoked Salmon Quiche
I have often heard the phrase that real men do not eat quiche, my boys thought that was funny and started calling it man pie. I guess that could easily be construed as something strange, but I thought it was funny. Okay, we have a weird sense of humor here. Anyhow, this smoked salmon quiche is to die for. If you don’t have any smoked salmon on hand, run out right now and get some . You can’t go another day without this; it’s that good! I really like variety, so much that I don’t usually even really like leftovers, but I made this quiche on Friday and then again on Sunday. Perfect for brunch or supper. Yum-o-licious!

We just had this for dinner. I added a couple extra eggs and used some salmon we smoked ourselves. I opted to drizzle the slices with some hollandaise and a sprinkle of paprika. It could not have been more perfect! Now I jut wish I had made two!
Heidi,

Thanks!

I am having dinner guests soon and would like to try this recipe. Lox is smoked salmon but is sliced thin and is sticky so how can it be flaked? I can see how it could be cut into bite-size pieces or even diced. Which way do you recommend? Also, how many ounces do I have to buy as it is VERY expensive! Thank you so much for putting this recipe online.
Hi Vivian,
You don’t need a lot for this quiche, I would say 3 to 4 ounces would be plenty. I hope you get the chance to try it.

Can this quiche be made in advance and frozen?
Hi Jass,
I have not tried freezing it but I think it would work. Let me know if you try it.
