Gluten-Free Quiche With Rice and Lentils
"A gluten-free quiche recipe that is also vegetarian. This vegetarian quiche recipe is gluten-free. Just like a traditional quiche, with veggies, cheese and eggs, but the addition of lentils and rice makes for a healthy gluten-free twist. Fresh parsley adds plenty of fresh flavor."
