This Mediterranean quiche is filled with nutritious red pepper, zucchini, Emmental cheese and mint. It is easy to make and so tasty. If you love easy quiche recipes, make sure you try our French mushroom quiche and take a look at our collection of French quiche recipes.
This mediterranean quiche is all that and more. To make this quiche, you will need a red onion, one red bell pepper, a clove of garlic, a large and juicy tomato, one medium zucchini, 7 mint leaves, 1 premade roll of pastry dough (we always use organic), 3 eggs, some cream and your favorite cheese (we used swiss emmental but cheddar would taste amazing too). We use a combination of spices that we love called ras-el-hanout. If you can’t find it near you, that’s fine. You can replace it with 1 tsp of curry powder instead. (The spice combination is similar.) If you’d like to learn more about cooking with spices, download our free printable spice guide.
