Callistemon21,

Which type of Quiche have you prepared ?

Big fan of Quiche .. I usually prepare a Swiss Gruyère & Spinach or a Lorraine.

I did say that it wasn't a patch on the ones I used to make!!

As winter has returned to North Leicestershire, we are having potatoes, sausage and cheese oven bake thingy. It has shallots, tomatoes and pine nuts too and is very comforting when the weather is upside down.

Banana Split - having bought the right kind of dish yesterday !

Cauliflower farro casserole. Stirato, tomato and rocket salad. Fruit.

Our mainmeal of the day is at 14.00 - 14.30 called Menú del Día as we work professionally and live in the Madrid Capital. (Husband is Madrileño). Obviously, I am French.

Starter: A simple salad with Ventresca albacore tuna (jar) with a variety of green & red oak leaf lettuces and hard boiled egg sliced and tomato. Vinaigrette.

Main Course. Freshly baked Norwegian Haddock, called Gallineta in Spanish and Rascasse de Fond in French - with garlic, fresh finely sliced tomato, fresh parsley, sliced sweet onion and a grind of assorted Mediterranean spices.

Was perfectly prepared.

Dessert: We shared a bowl of season fruit - Green melon called Sapo in now in season and it was amazingly sweet.
