We have an asparagus patch that has been growing every spring for over 50 years. As a result, this vegetable is quite plentiful in our house. This quiche is very fresh tasting yet satisfying when you combine the asparagus with the chicken and cheese. It's really easy to make and comes out perfect every time. If you're pressed for time, it would be okay to use a store bought crust.
