LEEKS!

I was so happy when I checked JUDITH’S BLOG this morning. I had a few leeks in the frig that were to the ‘use or lose’ stage, a loaf of stale bread sitting on the counter waiting to be cubed for croutons, and a chunk of sharp cheddar still in the frig.

Normally I'd make Art’s FAVORITE PASTA DISH (also courtesy of Judith) with leeks, but since I had the bread and the cheese, I thought I’d take her SFORMATA RECIPE, substitute some cheddar for the parmesan, and serve this Italian-style quiche with the wonderful prosciutto we bought yesterday in Norcia . I guess if I'd been really creative I could have diced up the prosciutto and incorporated it into the sformato as well, but that was just too much trouble!
