Cheese & Vegemite Mini Quiches
"Ok, I haven't tried Vegemite yet, but I'm bound and determined to, so I found this recipe on their website. It sounded good! I hear the biggest mistake we Americans make with both Vegemite and Marmite are to slather them on thickly like peanut butter when the "right" way is to put a very thin, almost transparent layer on toast or the bread of your sandwich. I'm quite eager to try them, but a bit scared from all the "love it or hate it" hype! Of course, that's true for things like liver and brussel sprouts too..."

Tasty! :) If it helps, I have seen Vegemite for sale at Whole Foods and Cost Plus. -
Quick and easy, with a sophisticated taste. Made these for a family get-together with my brother. My mom's an Aussie so my brother and I were raised on Vegemite. He loves it so much that when they stopped selling Vegemite in North America he still orders$$$ it from Australia because we think is so much nicer than Marmite. (Marmite has a gooey consistency.) So just a heads up that Vegemite might be impossible to find, but for this recipe either works equally well. Anyway, we all loved these - even the non-Vegemite eaters. (Tip: don't tell them). I skipped the bacon for the sake of the vegetarians, used a combination of mozzarella and really old cheddar, and milk instead of cream (but I think I'll use a light cream next time.) Thanks - this is a keeper.
