Not a quiche, nor a lasagna, it’s somewhere in between. Found the recipe over here and was intrigued! Pretty good, had half tonight — it’s much less heavy than you might think, though of course still pretty hearty.

It was quite lovely to see like that once it was all cooked and with the herbs on top. Definitely going to have to try it again!

That looks delicious! One of the local natural grocers still has heirloom tomatoes available and I just may have to snag some before they’re gone for the year so I can make this!

Not a quiche nor a lasagna? I’m intrigued.
The haphazardly sprinkled herbs lend lots of charm to the presentation but it’s the ripe heirlooms in the recipe which make it a must-try. Looks delish!
