Zucchini, Red Pepper, and Spinach Quiche

I made these  colorful quiches for a family brunch. They were fast and easy to make, filling, and used lots of delicious veggies, like zucchini, red pepper and fresh spinach. It doesn't really matter which veggies you use, you can select vegetables of your choice. However, I really like the look of the red pepper rings. And if you are making these at the end of the summer, it's a great way to use up some of the ever abundant zucchini.

My brunch menu with the quiches:
Just for the record, I also made my usual mozzarella tomato and basil platter, an egg salad mold, and roasted vegetables to go with the quiches.. My daughter in law filled in with an incredible banana strawberry trifle for dessert, and my sister in law brought a well seasoned chopped avocado and tomato salad!

I found the inspiration for the recipe on Pinterest , but it called for a spring form pan.

Since my spring form pan was unlocatable (word?), I decided to split the recipe in two and make 2 smaller quiches using two Pyrex pans. Although I liked the looks and height of the quiche in the spring form pan, having 2 smaller quiches worked out well this time. Next time I'll try it as one recipe in my spring form pan and cut the eggs back to 6.

The quiches were really quick and easy to throw together, looked great, and were perfect for brunch!
