Quiche

Quiche is a good choice for breakfast or brunch. It freezes well. Simply cut the completely cooled quiche into slices, wrap well in freezer wrap, label, and freeze for up to 6 months. To defrost, reheat each individual slice on 50 percent power for 2 to 4 minutes, then on 100 percent power for 1 minute, until hot. Let stand for 3 minutes, then serve.
