In lieu of “What I Ate Wednesday” I decided to get atop my high horse and tell you, instead, what you SHOULD eat this Wednesday. And on this Wednesday you should eat this quiche.
Roasted Tomato Quiche Provencale
Ingredients
- 1 frozen pie crust (or make it yourself, if you’re feeling fancy)
- 3 eggs, 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 1 sweet onion
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 Roma tomato for topping
- Olive oil
- Herbes de Provence
Directions
- Cook pie crust according to directions. Set aside to cool.
- Prep your vegetables. Throw your cherry tomatoes in an oven-safe container lined with foil, toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Herbes de Provence. Don’t be stingy! Make sure each tomato has some seasoning, because this herb makes a huge difference in the taste of this dish. Roast the tomatoes at 400 for 10-15 minutes, or until the tomatoes start to pop open. Chop the roasted tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.
- While your tomatoes are in the oven, start sauteeing your onions on medium-low heat with some olive oil, salt, pepper, and more Herbes de Provence. Cook the onions slowly, until tender and soft (about 10-12 minutes). Add the garlic and the chopped roasted tomatoes to the mix over low heat for 10 minutes.
- Remove vegetable mixture from heat and allow to cool completely in a large bowl.
- Once vegetables are completely cooled, add the eggs to the glass bowl.
- Pour the egg+vegetable mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Sprinkle the top with the Parmesan cheese and add Roma tomato slices on top for presentation.
- Bake at 375 for 35-45 minutes, or when the middle is set and puffed up, and the crust is golden brown. Every oven is different.
- Serve with a side salad — I like mixed greens with a homemade garlic dressing (EVOO+balsamic+garlic)
It’s buttery. It’s flaky. It’s cheesy. And it tastes just like the South of France. Enjoy!
i had a big lunch 
OMG … I haven’t had a quiche in far too long. My favorite is broccoli and asparagus… I usually try to avoid dairy but every so often I splurge and this might be my next “must-eat”
I’m all about the fritattas but sometimes you need that buttery crust! It’s SO GOOD!
I have a favorite quiche recipe – onions and mushrooms and spinach OH MY! And when I say onions, I mean the recipe calls for 4.
I’m all about onions — definitely wouldn’t mind more being in this recipe 🙂 add to your heart’s content!
LOOK AT YOU MISS SUSIE HOMEMAKER
Ps where have you been all my life???
I know I MISS YOU! Dinner date soon? Refer to email….haha
Quiche is my favorite! Or rather eggs haha, I think I may have a tiny bit of addiction, but this sounds amazing!
Any way I can eat eggs, I’ll take it (except when the yolk is runny — ick). Eggs are the bomb!
This sounds delicious. Usually I have spinach in quiche. But fresh tomatoes would be a perfect addition.
Spinach is always a welcome addition! It was delicious having these roasted tomatoes be the star of the show — definitely something different!
Yum, I love quiche! I also love roasted tomatoes. The flavor is so perfect!
If you love both those things you’ll LOVE this easy recipe haha
That looks so fancy. I don’t even think I’m allowed to make it bc the name is too fancy for me.
I give you my blessing 😉
Oh my gosh, yes, as a matter of fact, I should definitely be eating that. Rightttt nowwww. Thanks for sharing! Looks perfect.
And with the frozen pie crust it’s 10x easier than it looks!
I love quiche, so so much. This looks delicious, and paired perfectly with a salad 😉
Isn’t it some kind of law that quiche always has to be paired with a salad? 🙂
This looks so delicious and simple to make, I have to try this.
The already-made crust makes this almost too easy besides vegetable prep haha but I know you aren’t one to shy away from a little food prep!
Looks delicious! I make frittatas all the time which are fairly similar, just no crust. It’s a great dish for a quick meal.
I’m all about frittatas but sometimes having that crust makes it so much more special and hearty 🙂 either way the flavors are all spectacular!
Yum! I always forget about quiche for some reason but it is such a delicious meal. I think I might make this tomorrow, I have eggs which need using! x

I forget about it too sometimes! Then I see it on a menu and I’m all about it!
I always wondered what the South of France tastes like 😉 This looks great and something I would love to “veganize” with some silken tofu and nutritional yeast. Gotta love a good quiche 🙂
I still have to try nutritional yeast! I’ve heard great things
It’s like crack. I now add it to everything!
This is pretty much amazing. Love the combination of tomatoes with eggs and pastry? Bonus. Pinning!
It really is a great combo — roasted tomatoes are one of my favorites! Regular tomatoes pale in comparison 🙂
Yes please! This is one of those delicious dishes that I would serve up for a lunch in the garden.
The nice thing about this is it can be breakfast, lunch, brunch, dinner….you name it!
Yes to all of this. That looks delicious!
It is! It gives your classic egg dish a little more staying power AND it feels extra decadent.
I love this!! This is great, it looks super yummy!! …perf paired with a salad for brunch or dinner!! YUM! Thanks for telling us what we should eat! You’re right!
Hahaha glad you let me tell you what to do!
I always thought I didn’t like quiche until recently when I had an amazing one! I am definitely a convert now for sure, your one looks amazing too! 🙂
Oh my gosh I can’t imagine a person not like quiche!! It’s so good — glad you were converted!
omg that looks amazing
It’s the perfect combo of decadence and freshness!
MOUTH. IS. WATERING. That looks delicious@
It is! It’s perfect for spring/summer 🙂
