This salmon quiche recipe was one my father would always make on holidays for family members who didn't like turkey or ham. It's become a staple at my holiday dinners as well. Everyone who's eaten it has loved it and begged for the family recipe afterward. We always make two and freeze one for later. It's excellent paired with a side of grilled asparagus.
