Blogwatch: La Tartine Gourmande's Leek, Zebra Tomato, and Blue Cheese Quiche
Béa, of La Tartine Gourmande, is from Lorraine, which should make her an expert on quiche. Except, she hates Quiche Lorraine! Manipulating the classic French quiche into something lighter for the early fall, she used the ingredients one should use in quiche: whatever is in the fridge. For a gourmande like herself, that happened to be: organic leeks, Danish blue cheese, and Zebra tomatoes. Et voila. The perfect quiche, a "spontaneous" recipe that turned out "simple and lovely."

I like new ideas for quiches and I absolutely love blue cheese, so this sounds interesting.
I have to sheepishly say that what my eyes first saw as I scrolled by the post (leek, zebra, tomato and blue cheese) was a little startling. I thought, "Wow, zebra in a quiche." Of course my eyes were playing tricks but it made me laugh at myself. I'm glad no zebras were harmed in the making of this quiche. :)
Thanks for sharing your creation.
