How to turn a simple quiche into something truely delicious and nutritious! You may have tried salmon spinach quiches before, but the addition of sweet potato creates an irresistibly sweet finish that combines perfectly with the nuttiness of walnuts. From a health perspective, smoked salmon, walnut, coconut milk, sweet potato, spinach, provide you with everything your body and brain cells need to strive, namely Omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin D and B12, fiber, anti oxidants, magnesium, potassium, iron and even Vitamin C!Did I mention it is very easy to prepare, and impossible to miss? Meet me in the kitchen, and follow these simple steps.(Note: this recipe contains gluten and dairy.)
