Want an impressive recipe for your next brunch? Try this mushroom and asparagus quiche. It sounds fancy but is very easy to make. Savory and satisfying, it's perfect for a special breakfast, brunch, or even a breakfast for dinner night. Morel mushrooms can be hard to find and are expensive. Hearty portabella mushrooms are a delicious (and more readily available) substitution. Best with fresh morel mushroom but can use sliced portabellas if out of season. This is my favorite spring dish!
