Self-Crusting Quiche
This is not only super easy to make, it's perfect for using up leftovers. It's also a great recipe for clearing out the vege bin in the fridge when your produce is nearing the end of its lifespan and you need to use it all up.
Divide it into portions once you've made it and pop them into the freezer for a quick pre-prepped lunch option full of protein to keep you feeling full.
