Pascale's tips
I usually make enough for two quiches per person for breakfast, but if you think that may be too much, just have one quiche. The idea is simple: adjust the quantities to match your needs. If you are full, stop eating; if you're still hungry, eat more.
Serving suggestion
If you're having this for lunch or dinner, a fresh salad will be great with this dish.

Hi, Sharon! I just confirmed with our recipe team that 1 serving = 1 quiche.
Thanks
Hi, Lise! 8 oz. or 6 oz. ramekins work well.
