dede - Judy the quiche was fantastic. Nearly everyone ( except the 2 fussy little ones) loved it. 5 out of 7 people is pretty good. Definitely will be making it again. We had fried rice with the quiche. I probably would of preferred a salad but am a bit short on salad ingredients till shopping tomorrow. But any way it was a great way to use up some of the left over pork. Thanks again. 5 out of 5 from me.

Glad you enjoyed it dede.  I didn't post the recipes at the time because I didn't think there were that many pork eaters out there but I find 1 piece of roast pork can last the 2 of us all week with different leftover dishes that are a bit different than usual.
