Last night was one of my favorite of the year. It was Oscar night, or as my husband refers to it, “the super bowl for women”. He isn’t much interested in all the Red Carpet interviews with the stars and the clothes and jewelry, some of the things I LOVE about this event, but he participates because he enjoys movies almost as much as I do, and besides, he knows there will be food involved. Every year there is a small group of us who watch the Oscars together and the entree is themed around one of the Best Picture nominees. Read more

Over the years we have found that one of the most versatile and fun meals, for both host or hostess and guest, is brunch. And one of our favorite brunch foods is Classic Quiche. This is another “go to” recipe for the Two Chums because it is easy and delicious and can be made well ahead of time and re-warmed or served at room temperature.
This recipe is not for those who are on a perpetual diet or who like to modify original recipes to be more low calorie and then proclaim “You’ll never taste the difference”. Unless your taste buds have been very seriously altered, we can promise you WILL taste the difference if you skimp on ingredients or use low fat anything. If you only eat this once in a while, make and eat it the way it is supposed to be made or we would have to say it is better to find another dish to serve. We sound pretty emphatic about this but once you’ve tasted it you will know why. Enjoy!
