ROASTED VEGETABLE AND GRUYERE QUICHE



Roasted Vegetable and Gruyere Quiche image

This is from a supermarket magazine I picked up. It's a great recipe for picnics or for a light summer dinner served with a side salad. Roasting the vegetables before using them in the quiche means a little more effort, but it's well worth it as it really brings out all the sweetness and flavours.
