Grandma Jo’s Artichoke Quiche

Grandma Jo's Artichoke Quiche, with its golden, flaky crust and cheesy, browned filling, sits invitingly on a dark textured surface.

Every Easter, Special Occasion, or any Spring and Summer Sunday, My Grandma Jo’s Artichoke Quiche was usually brought to the table. My Grandma Jo used a balance of fresh and some easy to find store bought ingredients to make this an easier recipe to make but no one would ever know. Heavy Cream, Eggs, Mozzarella Cheese, and her two biggest time savers Deep Dish Pillsbury Crust and Cento Quartered Artichoke Hearts from a can, which in our opinion is better than frozen in THIS scenario.

Here’s the thing, I have developed so many quiche recipes based on the original ratio that my Grandma Jo used in her Artichoke quiche recipe. But, my FAVORITE and MUST Make recipe I created using her egg to cream ratio is my Easy Sicilian Sausage and Tomato Quiche. YOU MUST try this quiche recipe!! Both of them!
