Quiche. Lots and lots of quiche.

(In answer to the question: what are you going to do with more chard, beet greens, and scallions?)

This will be the week I cook Swiss chard and like it. I am determined! And the way I’ll make this work is with other things I like, namely, cheese, ham, eggs, and a crust. Friends, fat and carbs make everything better.

I also got lettuce, which will probably used in some kind of salad with roasted beets, and summer squash. There are about 11 billion ways to cook squash – one of my favorites is a stick-to-your-ribs vegetarian rice loaf. However, that takes about 2 hours to make, between cooking the brown rice and then baking the loaf. So I’m thinking zucchini bread.

My birthday is tomorrow, and I’m having a bring-your-favorite-takeout party. But because I’m incapable of making too much food for these kinds of things, I’m making roasted chickpeas, homemade cheese (with mango chutney for mixing), and cake. It just isn’t a party without cake.

So, what are our favorite quiche and zucchini bread recipes?
