Asparagus Quiche

I just love quiche and I really should make it more than I do. This healthy Asparagus Quiche is a wonderful choice for breakfast and even dinner.

Confession time. I do not make my own pie crust. Really just because I have never mastered it and I’m a little impatient. But luckily Trader Joe’s has yummy pie crusts that make my life easier. I don’t plan on giving up on making my own… one day.
