Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the pre-made pastry shells on a baking sheet.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Incorporate the shredded cheese and diced vegetables. If using meat, add it now.
  5. Pour the egg mixture into each pastry shell, filling them about three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, until the quiches are set and golden on top.
  7. Let them cool slightly before removing from the shells.

Notes

Substitutions are welcome for vegetables and cheeses based on preferences. For a large gathering, prepare the filling a day in advance for quicker assembly. To avoid soggy bottoms, pre-bake the pastry shells if necessary. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes.
